Other Information
Of the four gravestones present two are made of soft white marble
while the others of fieldstone. The one with writing (fieldstone) is the
only handcarved stone known in the area. It reads: "To TH E M T
FUllER" with writing that is clear using both upper and lower case
lettering. Spacing is odd. A man by the name of T.Fuller once owned the
property according to deeds. The other stones have no writing on them.
