NW: N39°46.525’ W86°20.182’

Condition:
This cemetery is fenced, mowed, and somewhat maintained. The new section
is to the south, behind the church. There is a large older section
to the north. The major maintenance problem is the huge yucca plants
surrounding many of the stones. They have completely enveloped many
stones. Some of the stack stones and tablets are leaning. Some
tablets have been stuck in wet concrete and have thus broken off at ground
level. There are also a couple tablets that have fallen and are sinking
face up into the ground.
