About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The cemetery is hard to find and is not maintained. It is located in Section 20, TWP 33, Range 12 on top of a hill in a wooded pasture. At one time there was a school house near the cemetery, but stones from the foundation is all that is left. It is fenced and there are several tall Cedars located there. There is evidence of unmarked graves and several stones are stacked in areas and several have fallen over. The earliest burial is that of Flora Severns, a 2 month old baby in June 1872.

The original deed of ownership is recorded in W.D., Book B, pg. 528, dated December 6, 1876, and filed February 1, 1877. It was sold for $1.00 by David Burton to School District #55.
