John Janney Grave Site - Roanoke / Floyd County VA
John Janney's grave site. John's gravestone reads: "John Janney 1828"
Directions:
Bent Mountain (Rt 221) turn onto Tinsley Lane (Rt 771). From Tinsley Lane turn onto Bottom Creek Road (Rt 607). At the end of Bottom Creek Road turn right onto Patterson Drive (Rt 669), drive about 1/8th mile to Cristo Evangical Wesleyan Church on the right side of the road. Small gravestone and footstone of John Janney is across the road (left side of the road) from the church at 9502 Patterson Drive, Roanoke County, Virginia.
I have photos of the Gravestone.
I believe this John Janney to be the husband of Malinda Hale.
I'm also trying to verify John Janney's middle name.
VA Library has civil war pension records for John W. Janney. The papers were dated 1901 and John W. Janney says he is 72 years old which puts his birthdate about 1828. Anyone have any DOCUMENTATION for John Janney husband of Malinda Hale?
