On the West side of the road and over on a hill the white cemetery is in need of
restoration.  No stones are standing and many are buried in the fallen leaves or
grass.  Many of the graves are sunken and probably the stones have fallen in the
graves.  This is true in many old cemeteries.  These fallen stones can be found by
probing with a sharp stick.  The following stones were read tho many were broken.
