Pearson Family Cemetery

Located Beside 6422 Edgewater Dr.
Burke, Va.

FX107

The cemetery is located on common ground in the Edgewater Subdivision. This small cemetery has been subject to serious vandalism for many years. 1977 and 1987 surveys found the gravestones in a pile near the center of the plot, and a hole dug into one grave. The site was probed in Oct. 1991 and 15 burials were located. There is one inscribed marble headstone and four marble base pieces of varying sizes present. It appears that all five pieces are part of the same elaborate monument to CHARLES T. PERASON (1831-1916) & SARAH JANE PEARSON (1841-1911).
