Thanks to Tom, I discovered from my great grandfather's death certificate that he is buried at the Locust Grove Methodist Church Cemetery in Greenfield, Virginia. The following map shows the location:

The church is no longer there. What exists is a small cemetery that includes tombstones with the names Fox, Parr and Farrar -- all names associated with my family tree. (There are also several other family names represented on the tombstones.)

I took the liberty of taking photos on several additional tombstones. Some of the first names are fun.
