Survey Description:
Site consists of a small family cemetery with at least five graves. All of the observed graves were recently
marked with metal markers and all were oriented to the southeast. Reports indicate this cemetery contains other
graves. Observed graves are surrounded
by a modern wood post and split rail fence.
Cemetery is covered with mowed grass and one cedar tree is located on
the site. This cemetery was recently
“restored” after a family member learned it had been severely impacted when
timber was cleared from the surrounding area.
Log skidders ran over the cemetery causing advanced disturbance to the
cemetery. The family member relocated
and marked as many graves as memory permitted, but reported the cemetery
contained other graves. The linear
depressions of log skidding trails still disfigure the surface of the ridge
top. Site was field inspected, photographed,
and grave marker inscriptions were transcribed.
Site size was estimated by pacing the horizontal extent of the
surrounding fence.
