Introduction and Brief History
The cemetery and
church have been abandoned and victimized by vandals over the years. A
committee was formed in 1978 to save the church and cemetery grounds. In
1982 the chapel and cemetery were listed on the National Register of
Historic Places.
The cemetery
grounds are rectangular in shape, enclosed by a wire fence. There is a
mixture of wooden markers and tombstones here. The wooden markers are
mostly unreadable due to weather erosion over the years. Out of 333
markers and tombstones found here, only 198 were legible.
The cemetery has
no formal map available, so a sketch was drawn to show how it is laid
out in relation to the church.
It was divided into
four sections and read as NW, SW, NE, and SE.
Thank you to these volunteers - Beverly Blum, Judy Chambers,
Ken Hart and Phoebe Adams for their efforts.
