Add PhotosThere was a Bradley Family Cemetery behind the Bradley home in which family members were being buried as late as the 1960s. The home burned, but the cemetery remained. In 1992 proposed construction of the northern leg of the Route 29 Danville Bypass denied access to the cemetery and Wrenn-Yeatts Funeral Home won the bid from the VA Department of Highways for disinterment and reburial in Highland Burial Park.
All tomestones and remains were removed to Highland in the fall of 1992. Robert Clements Dodson, who had Bradley ancestors, was present when the graves were moved and had parts of the iron fence and iron gate with the letter "B" which were at the old cemetery.
