On April 20, 2007 dowsed the entire cemetery. There were several unmarked graves that I tried to identify by placing rocks around the grave. There is only 5 headstone identifying the person interred. The vast majority are identified with white rock outlining the grave. 16 graves are children, 6 are female, and the rest are adult males. Beautiful Pioneer Cemetery and well maintained, although hard to find the right road that will take you back to it.
