This small graveyard in Pictou County, Nova Scotia appears to be a private site since it is untended and is a portion of a hay field. 
The site  is on Route 104 just past Saltsprings going west at the foot of Mount Thom. There are only nine headstones in the graveyard. Note that the table rows do not correspond to a separate gravestone.

There was an Ebenezer Church associated with this cemetery. The church was started in 1845 (Free Church) by 20 families. It was located next to the remaining cemetery and was demolished in 1976 as covered in the " Evening News of 25 Sept. 1976 "
