History. —
Notes. This cemetery is in very poor condition. It is completely overgrown and difficult to locate. In addition to the engraved stones are several natural stones, presumably also marking graves. A newly (1999) blazed/flagged boundary runs along the edge of the cemetery nearest Indian Point Road.
