The cemetery is located within a large fenced in area to the left of the house. A Norton Cemetery sign will be seen next to the road as you drive by this house. In 2003, the cemetery was in bad need of a good trimming. Graves for William & Jemina are located above ground - placed end to end. Original grave markers can not be read. New granite grave marker has been placed in-between the two graves. Marker for Sarah is very difficult to read.
