Sexton has no record of this person being buried in this cemetery. The sexton stated that records before the 1950's were extremely poor. The beginning of the records was done in 1951 by a walk through of the cemetery. If the person had no stone then they have no record. A volunteer did walk this cemetery and did not find a stone for this person.
