The cemetery is situated on the top of a hill with lots of oak trees. There are lilac bushes planted next to many of the stones. Many of the graves are not marked. There were wooden crosses without names laying on the top of the hill, inside of a wooden fence. There were several areas that looked like they had sunk and could possibly be grave sites.
