WVCPA thanks faithful contributors Charlotte
and Steve Iman for the photos and research for this page. They comment,
regarding the cemetery as they found it in May 2010:
"When visited in 2010, 62 graves were identified, information was
retrieved for approximately 34 individuals. The cemetery appeared to
be receiving care, but may have suffered a period of neglect.
Approximately 27 graves were marked with rectangular building blocks, one fieldstones was found.
Note: Two spelling variations were used, most used "Litton", but
"Lytton" was also used."
