There are many more graves here than stones. 30 white crosses have
been placed to mark the graves, but most of those buried here remain
unknown. There is one Civil War era slab-style grave, reportedly
belonging to a soldier killed on his way to the battle at
Humansville. He was run over by a wagon, and buried here. As my
research continues, I will continue to update the records.
