Comments:  There is a big orchard in back of this cemetery, some of the cemetery is well taken care of but the back and older part is high with weeds and since this cemetery is on a side hill it was hard copying. The cemetery was surrounded by a fence at one time. There are many unmarked graves; broken stones; field stones; no identification.
