This cemetery may not be hidden in the middle of the woods, as a matter of fact it is located next to a major road, but it is often overlooked and certainly unmaintained and forgotten. Nestled upon a hilltop, it contains a half dozen graves, many of them unreadable and/or broken. The graveyard is overgrown with honeysuckle bushes. A signpost which at one time may have held the cemetery name plaque now stands vacant.
Earliest Burial: 09/15/1809
