Dates 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. There are several unmarked graves in this cemetery. There are two metal funeral home markers outside of an old fence at the south side of this cemetery, believed to be those of the Armstrong babies. << Click on images to view full size Our thanks to Paul Greathouse for sharing this cemetery information with us!
