Between the towns of Big Stone Gap and Appalachia in the mountains of southwestern Virginia was a  place once known as “Boneyard Hollow.”  This little hollow was where a meat butchering concern used to dump the bones left over from preparing steaks, roasts and other meats.  It also was where a body could be found, at least as one prisoner told it.  Today we tell you that story.
