The cemetery is enclosed by a 3 foot chain link fence and
is somewhat overgrown. No graves were visible but we
cleared away enough so that we could find them and read
the stones and feel we got them all. The cedar trees are
very large and take up a lot of the cemetery. Graves
1,2,3,4 & 5, are large flat granite markers resting on
the ground with inscriptions on them.  These five are in
very good condition. Graves 6,7,8,9 & 10 are small
unmarked graves. (See diagram below)

I have an old survey of this cemetery from 1936 showing
the same graves I found with the exception of Frances E.
and W.J. Dennis stone. At the time of the survey the
following was found. Size of Burial Plot about 40 feet by
50 feet; surrounded with a hedge about 24 inches high;
several cedar trees on the plot and kept in very good
condition. Four large graves and five child size graves.
