Help! I need a name of a park in Salem WV (Parkersburg: working, kids)

Hello! I am trying to find out the name of a park in Salem WV. It is behind a cemetary that is right off of Rt. 50. Sorry, I don't know the name of the cemetary either. Going from Parkersburg to Clarksburg, it is on the left. If I remember correctly, it may be a private park. I believe that you have to have a key to get into the gate. I'm working on a Christmas Gift for my mom and need the name of that park to put on a picture frame. We held a family reunion there 6 years ago. Any help would be appreciated.

Georgia, I clicked on you link of Salem...

Saw an error, Senator Randolph was responsible for the 26th Amendment...not the 16th.

Sat with him on a plane to DC in 1968 and he told me all about it...was a wonderful man...wore suits with threadbare elbows...gave up his seat to Rocky in the late 70's, that has been a shame...

When the kids were little, I would take them to Sportsman's Lake (and Fort Salem)...fish were very small.
