POPES HEAD RD. & QUIETBROOK RD., FAIRFAX
Several generations of the
Barnes, Custis, and Stuart families were buried
in this private cemetery. The land was part of
the "Hope Park" property. The house still stood
nearby. The burials were reportedly moved to Fairfax
Cemetery in 1955 when the U.S. Army built a Nike
Missile Base on the site. Documentation on the
disenterment had not been located. Source: Petersilia,
