Comments:
Dates
or text in Red are not inscribed on the
tombstone and have either been calculated based on death date or are as a
result of research on the individual.
Besides
those listed above, at the reading of this cemetery in October 2006, there
appeared to be several unmarked graves as well, based on the depressions
in the ground, and a few marked with illegible or uninscribed markers.
In
the photo to the right, the cemetery is located behind and to the left of
the barn - you can just make out a few of the tombstones through the
trees.
The
photo on the left shows the view across the meadow to the barn from the
barbed wire gate of the cemetery itself (note the fenceline of the
cemetery in the right of the photo).
