At Least 27 Graves Some Unknown This cemetery was originally much larger than the fenced cemetery today. However, in the 1980's part of the cemetery was cut off to make room for a driveway and the known graves were enclosed by a chain-link fence. It is not known if any graves were lost during the excavation, but based on old burial records, it appears no graves were disturbed. However, it appears that all the graves were not enclosed by the chain-link fence and there are likely 3-4 graves located outside the current fenced area on the cemetery's south side, and possibly one on the north side.
