Description

Broad Run Baptist Church Cemetery is a Baptist churchyard cemetery in Lewis County, West Virginia, associated with Broad Run Baptist Church near Jane Lew. The congregation was organized in 1804, and the present church building was dedicated in 1883. ([wvhistoryonview.org](https://wvhistoryonview.org/catalog/050990?utm_source=openai)) Historical accounts describe the cemetery as part of the church property established during the congregation’s early development.

The plot contains members of Isaac Jackson’s family, relatives of Thomas J. “Stonewall” Jackson; Stonewall Jackson himself is not buried here.
