Surveyed by Shirley Olson in March 11, 2002.

This cemetery is in poor condition. The stumps of large oak trees dot the grounds which are unkempt. There is no fence or landscaping, and there are obviously more graves here than tombstones. Sunken spots indicate unmarked graves. This section of Sunset Lake Rd. is surrounded by trailer parks and very close to heavy industrial development. It is an abandoned cemetery with an uncertain future.

One unmarked stone, several broken unreadable stones.
