The cemetery is located on the right side of the road approximately 250 yard off the road. It is badly over grown and the circular wooded area can be easily seen today from new road. It is so thick you cannot walk through it up right and in some cases, you cannot get in front of the headstones to read them with out pushing down small hedge bushes and trees. Some of the headstones are broken and most are readable. There are a few unmarked graves and at least one unmarked slab. A couple of the headstones are broken with no names and a couple are missing the top part of the headstone that contained the name. The property owner told me there where twenty two graves in the thicket so the remainder are unmarked We welcome any corrections, additions or information on the cemetery.
