Other_Information:
When we were there on 31 May, we found that we couldn't search for
relatives graves as it was overgrown and on one grave, there were bones
spread. We don't know whether they were animal or people, but
it's distressing to see that a cemetary that was built in 1804 has gone
by the wayside. I know the town of Corning (with whom this is
associated) only has a population of 21, but this is where I have
family buried and would like to visit.
