Vandals have not been kind to this cemetery over the years. Many stones have been broken and are no longer readable. Weather has also taken a toll on some of these stones and their readability. With the exception of one stone left laying in the ground in front, surviving stones were gathered together and placed in rows of cement years ago. -- also see enlargement of above photo.
