At the end of Ball Park Drive outside the city limits of Morris, Alabama, there is a huge cemetery containing nearly 8,000 burials. Row after row of graves with numbered marker stuck in the red clay of north Alabama is the final resting place for thousands of indigents. Very few private tombstones can be found. Funded by the county and with the help of devoted volunteers, this cemetery has been called "Potter's Field" by many, and it is the last pauper's cemetery in the state of Alabama. Most interred do not have an obituary.
