At the New Dublin Presbyterian Church Cemetery,  Founded  1769,  are 15 CSA graves.  The cemetery is located about 2 miles north of Dublin, Va. on Route 100 and about 1/2 mile east on a county road.  Most of the stones do not bear inscriptions of the deceased's unit but any listed below with a "CSA marker"  have, in addition to the headstone,  a cast iron antique Confederate Maltese Cross marker.

Major Cloyd's stone is unusual.  He was owner of the farm where the famous battle of "Cloyd's Farm" occurred on May 10,  1864.  Further inscription on his stone reads:  "He was born on Back Creek, Pulaski Co. Va.  and spent his long and useful life in the same community.  Renowned alike as a citizen, a Patriot,  and a Christian gentleman.  His memory is cherished in the hearts of those who knew him most intimately and his generous deeds will speak of his benevolence when the memory of man shall have faded away."
