Munden
Family
Cemetery

Virginia Beach, VA
(Formerly Princess Anne County)

The family of John B. Munden lies buried in the middle of a field in the Back Bay section of Virginia Beach.  The cemetery sits on the east side of the highway, north of the house that is located at 313 Princess Anne Road.  The plot is in very bad condition.  I had to clean the top of two flat markers to learn the identity of the person buried there.  Layers of dirt displaced by rain had settled over the top of the concrete.  Very soon the entire grave covering will be buried unless some care is given to the plot.  Several of the tombstones are broken and/or missing.  Cemetery Photographed February 25, 2005

John B. Munden was the son of Janie Munden, who was widowed by 1880.  She was born in North Carolina but was living in Pungo at the time of the 1880 census enumeration.  Her three youngest children were born in North Carolina.

Living next door to John B. Munden in 1900 was Mary Jane Munden, born April 1827 in North Carolina with her son Butler.  Mary Jane Munden was probably Janie, the mother of John B. Munden.  Jane Munden was enumerated next door to John B. Munden in 1910 with her son William B. 33 in the household.  Her 1910 census age is consistent with 1880.  The 1900 census age of Mary Ann is 10 years different.

Most probably this is either the marker of John B. Munden or his Mother Jane.  I could not discern any inscription.  It probably is worn by time.
