There is one small flat granite marker approx 8 inches x 3 inches in size that seems to mark a grave, however there is no inscription upon it at all. One fieldstone was also located in the immediate area of all the gravestones, this total area measuring approx 20 ft x 24 ft in size. NOTE: According to the landowner, the county land records office indicates one full acre is deeded and set aside for this cemetery, however no evidence of any other graves outside this 20 x 24 ft area could be found.
