BURIALS OUTSIDE THE EXISTING FENCES:
Several (possibly as many as a hundred or more) graves without tombstones have been discovered OUTSIDE the existing fence. Some of these are on at least three sides (north, south, and west) of the cemetery. The Cemetery owns 7/10ths of an acre of land, east of the east fence, which is not fenced and apparently never has been enclosed. The east boundary of the cemetery's property is the township road which once went due north on the section line between Sec. 35 and 36 of Carthage township. The full cemetery boundary is 132 feet wide and 562.32 feet long (132' by 330' is one acre).
