 Someone told me about this old CONWELL Family Farm Cemetery in the
fall, and the weather was nice enough to walk to it this week.
The cemetery is located on land that is fenced-in, and belongs
to Brent BROADWATER, approximately 200 yards west of the intersection of 
Frogtown Road and Conwell Road. It is an area referred to as "Frogtown", and 
it is about 3/4 mile south of the old Heisterberg village and is surrounded
by land that was strip-mined years ago, which can be seen as a clump of
trees in the middle of the pasture on the hill. Permission must be
obtained from the property owner prior to accessing the cemetery.

NOTE: My brother remembers hiking to this cemetery as a small boy with
the boy scout troop, and indicated to me that there were many more
stones in the cemetery at that time, which would have been in the 
late
1950's.
