Inscriptons

A young man by the name of Alex recently walked the cemetery and developed the booklet as part of his Boy Scout of America Eagle Project. The booklet contains the photographs and inscriptions of the stones remaining in the cemetery. I have attached the booklet in PDF format. See the list of burials with inscriptions completed May 2009.
