Other_Information:
The danger to this cemetery, is that is is on property owned by
a stone quarry, that is in opperation, and they are getting
closer and closer to it. In March, 2003, when I was last there
they were removeing earth to get to stone, and they are less
than 1/4 mile from cemetery. They have moved over 1 mile in lasr
2 years. To get to stone they will completely destroy the
cemetery.
