Other_Information:
There are Confederate soldiers buried in the premises. Several
older headstones have fallen over and are slowly sinking into the
ground...one confused as a footstone for walking (writing is face
up). Cemetery is in very good shape currently. Recent
"clearing" activity in one corner of the premises has uncovered several
forgotten graves (approximately 6 so far). I was visiting this
weekend and felt obliged to report some kind of work going on there
before something is damaged or destroyed.
