I wasn't sure I could go in the cemetery. The gate is located on the southwest corner of the south fence. It is a rod iron fence wiith stone posts in the corners. There is also a bell on top of a post on which the sign, a roster of burial is attached. The bell is located in the cemetery on the northwest corner. I was happy to find the gate open. I walked around for a short time and took a few pictures.

The cemetery is enclosed by a wrought iron fence. There are 43 known graves. Some gravestones have fallen over and are unreadable. Inside the fenced area is a roster posted on an iron poll with a cast iron bell on top. The roster has 39 graves listed from 1833-1957. I have found three additional graves not listed on the roster, the latest being 2006. If I did not find a grave that was posted on the roster, I included it with this report.

On some older maps this cemetery is listed as the Carr Cemetery.

This is a complete transcription of all existing and legible stones and markers completed on Mar 08, 2007.
