About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Coming from Big Stone Gap on State Route 606, as you first enter into Keokee limits where all the houses begin and you start on the straight-of-way after the S-curve, the dirt driveway leading up the hill to Keokee Cemetery is between two houses on the right hand side of State Route 606. One house is white house with a burgandy tin roof sitting on a hill across from Elbo Lane (now called Bear Road) and the other house is all white. The cemetery cannot be seen from the dirt driveway very well. The hill that the cemetery is located on is called Cooper Hill.

Moore Cemetery was established by Jessee Moore (1824 - 1900) and Margaret "Peggy" Ramey (1824 - 1895). About 1860, Jessee moved his family from Scott County, Virginia to Lee County, Virginia which was the next county to the west. They bought land in Crab Orchard, which is now present day Keokee, near the border with Kentucky. Jessee and Margaret and several of their children and grandchildren are buried in Moore Cemetery, which had been the family cemetery.
