Do you know of Burk's Fork ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Burk's Fork. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Burk's Fork.<1>

Our sources for Burk's Fork (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Burk's Fork other than they indicate that Burk's Fork would be found somewhere in Floyd County, Virginia.
