A Cemetery Study Questionaire was done 1989-1990 of this burial gound.
The surveyer who filled out the questionaire stated that there was indication of six or more burials on the property. The visual indications were swales and different grass on the West side of the church property; a footstone (WAW) and a tombstone base was in the parking lot. A part of a tombstone was being used as a splashstone for the gutter spout of the church.
Please see the photo on this page that depicts the West side of the 1853 chapel. If you can't read the red edit print, you may save to your computer and enlarge to see all of the print.
