There is one grave that I was unable to transcribe (there is just a metal funeral home marker) the name is no longer readable. A new burial has been dug but there is no marker or stone place there yet. The flowers on the grave have a banner (Father). It is on the west side of or next to Harry E. Joslin.

There may be other people buried in this cemetery that there are no tombstones, or markers present to this day. Seeing there were so few burial I have put these in alphabetical order.

These were all single stone unless I have it marked as (with xxxx) then it is a double stone.This reading was done on July 21, 2003 by Barbara J.(Feldkamp) Burns. I can be reached at bjburns@i2k.com if you have any questions on this reading.
