As there is limited access to this area, and none by private vehicle, I stopped to copy the inscriptions. In the event someone might be researching these family names, I wanted to submit them to the GenWeb. Cemetery (Sign): Typical of Early Settlers' Family Burial Plot. In this area many early settlers established homesteads. Cemetery sign: 6 plots 1. Thompson Grave 2. Butler Grave 3. Unidentified Grave 4. H. Wilson Grave 5. F. Wilson Grave 6. E.
