There are several graves visible when one drives up to the old former church. The cemetery has fallen onto hard times and is in a terrible state of disrepair. I notice at least 4 graves with rotting wooden crosses with engraved black plastic signage. Workmanship of the wooden crosses was pretty good as the all the cross-lap joints where still tight. There is one grave with a headstone and a foot-stone nicely engraved with several different symbols. The grave with the most readable earliest birth year and newest death date is Cora Ellen Williams Lockhart born May 25, 1849, died May 7, 1929.
Earliest Burial: 05/25/1849
