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.

Calmes Cemetery, was located on Boonesborough Road, on the old Smith farm.

The city of Winchester has completely grown around and swallowed up this little graveyard which is surrounded by a stone fence. It is right in the middle of a large housing development with modern houses on all sides. Only three headstones are up-right and legible. There may be several that need to be dug up and reset. Up until this year, the owners of the original Calmes homesite were acting caretakers of the graveyard but I noticed a realty sign in their yard today and the graveyard has obviously not been mowed at all in 2013. The Calmes family kept slaves in slave quarters and probably all the fieldstones in this graveyard were for their deceased slaves. There is about 150 yards distance between the graveyard and the house. It is a strange sight to see a pre-Civil War house surrounded by modern houses built in the 1980s and 1990s.
