There are also some field stones in one area which could be older graves. Ethel (Hardy) Weese did the upkeep on this cemetery until her death. Her son, George Weese Jr took care of the cemetery for about 20 years and still helps out with the road up to it. His sister, JoAnn Shook takes care of mowing the grass, etc now.
