  One stone with date of 1818 lying at base of stump and 
  several other stones lying at a stump with no dates on them 
  but were evidently grave markers. 
  
  On this same farm there is said to be buried between the pike 
  and the gable end of the barn, the body of a man.  
  Grave has been destroyed by being piked over and now is part of the barnyard.
