Located in Keno Cemetery is a large plot known as the 'Potters Graves'. Most of the graves in this part of the cemetery are of the lower-class citizens from the late 1800s through the early 1900s who were too poor to pay for a proper burial or didn't have family to bury them so they were interred here. There is a memorial comprised of marble on a metal stand that is dedicated to these unknown souls and it reads:

IN MEMORY OF
UNKNOWN SOULS
WHO HAVE COME
AND GONE
MAY THEY REST IN PEACE

Location: Keno Cemetery
