Updated in October of 2008

Thanks to Bob Lozanski for his assistance in finding many of the newer and older burials for this cemetery through his documentation while he was the Sexton in the 1990's.
We would also like to thank Phil Pryzbylinski who took the time to go out and photograph all of the stones in this cemetery.
