Kell Cemetery, Smyth County,Virginia508 viewsKell cemetery, from the upper side. It is MUCH steeper than it looks in this picture and when you get to the last stones at the bottom, there is a almost straight drop. The cemetery is on top of a hill. There is a pretty rough little rd that comes up to the foot but, we opted to walk up.
