This cemetery is also known as Potters Field and Country Home Cemetery. Those who worked on (and died at) the county poor farm were interred here; the field is not far from the old farm buildings. There are only a few stones with names and dates; many burial sites have only have a metal marker. The cemetery is well maintained. The usual "findagrave" link is below; additional information can be found here.
