Nebo Cemetery. All stones are facing East unless otherwise stated. The count begins from the Northeast corner. The first number indicates the row; the second number indicates the grave. The number 1.4 means first row, fourth grave. Lot numbers that are skipped are either broken, unreadable, or empty. Some stones are very old and difficult to read. The Mt.
