This is a Headstone made of Oak Board, nailed to the rail fence.  The writing on the board is very hard to read, but I believe it relates to 2 boys, children of Wm. King and A. Boyle, 1866-1872.

This is a small wooden cross made out of two cedar poles wired together.

This is field stone with a point facing up.

This is a smaller field stone, white in color, also facing up.

It is believed that there are approximately 19 to 30 people buried in this cemetery.  Some of them may be as follows;

Thomas Duncan King, father of Jack King died Nov. 1925.

James King Sr., born 1786/7, his wife Grace, sons John & James and daughter Eliza.

William Hanson, died 27 Feb. 1896, aged 84 years.

Ann Barrie (wife of Wm. Hanson) died 24 April 1906, aged 84 years.
