Notes. Laying in the woods behind the cemetery is a stone for Willis E. BUNKER and Rena that gives full birth and death dates. These have been incorporated into the information below. Found with this stone are footstones: “S. S. B.” [Samuel S. BUNKER?], “H. A. B.” [Hannah A. BUNKER?], and “A. B.”, in addition to two broken pieces of footstones and a base with a slot for a stone. The cemetery is enclosed by a gated chain-link fence, and the grass is mowed and trimmed.
