Needs
This cemetery needs somebody to come in and cut and trim the grass
down. The grass is about 3 1/2 feet high and it is very hard to get in
there. The fence needs some repair and I could not open the gate. There
are probably buried headstones but because the grass is so high you
cannot find them.
Other Information
It is a small cemetery that has been neglected for years. It contains
the burials of three families (Wilcox, Drake, and Tenborg) that were
homesteaders.
