Note: I first canvassed this cemetery is about Spring of 1970. When I re-checked it in April, 1978, I could not locate the tombstone of Nancy Royster. Someone has made an attempt to clear the trees and brush from this cemetery (which helped) but it is still terribly overgrown. The tombstones are all off their pedestals and lying on the ground.
