The cemetery had gone into complete neglect over the years. Trees and brush had completely obscured everything. Trees had fallen and broken the grave markers. The markes had fallen over and disappeared under the leaves and debris.

In the summer of 2014, the Sons of Confederate Veterans Camp 2205 of Stem took on a project to clean up and reclaim the abandoned cemetery. All the growth was removed and the area seeded. All the grave markers were repaired and reset into their correct upright positions. The cemetery now looks like a well maintained cemetery in October 2014.
