Surveyed by Allen Dew in April 2006. Cemetery is in the woods beside a rough path. Some cleanup work has been done by someone who is renting the land for hunting. Another view into cemetery.
There are eight grave stones with inscriptions, about eight footstones, and numerous fieldstones which appear to mark at least eight other graves. The cemetery is about 45 feet by 25 feet, with the headstones toward the east and footstones toward the west.
