Condition:
This cemetery is township owned and currently mowed and fenced.  The person who is mowing the cemetery is careful and does a nice job.  The stones are almost all tablets.  They are mostly standing but sinking and leaning slightly.  They also have a lot of black moss on them. There is a small stack of tablets in the southeast corner as well as a pile of concrete chunks.  Most of the footstones seem to correspond with the headstones.  The ground is low and near a creek. In the past, sediments from the creek were seen on the first few rows of headstones. Otherwise, this cemetery is in decent shape and not in immediate danger.
