From Joseph D. Parriott of Moundsville: "The cemetery contains the bodies of many of the Irish who dug the 34 mile long tunnel and built the railroad. The tunnel was the last thing to be finished on the Baltimore to Benwood railroad, and many of the Irish stayed in the vicinity of the tunnel after it was finished. They worked on the railroad as train crew and track crewmen. A Catholic church was constructed near the cemetery in the early 1900's, but it has disappeared as has most of the people in the community.
