Cemetery Notes
The cemetery was recorded starting with the first row to the east and last row to the west. Rows were recorded from left to right (south to north). In 1967 J. Robert Swank noted "Indications are that there are more graves without named markers than those with named markers." The notes in the "Remarks" column were made by Mr. Swank and/or taken from church records.
