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.

This abandoned cemetery is known in the WPA records as Shultz Cemetery, incorrectly listed in Black Township, Somerset Co. It is also known as Walter Cemetery, and is actually in Somerset township, just north of the township line, on what was formerly the Hillvale Farm Dairy, owned by the Beeghley family. Presently owned (2013) by Ben Hawbaker, 872 Chickentown Rd, Somerset, PA

The cemetery is in sorry shape, with stones overturned, tree roots pushing them over, groundhog holes undermining it, and full of briars and poison ivy.

Directions:
From Somerset at intersection of Cannell Dr and Edgewood Ave, go S on Cannell Dr (which turns into Chickentown Rd) for approximately 3.0 mi. Park in farm yard. Cemetery on right, up hill approximately 75 yds in copse of trees. 20-25 graves.
