"After reading the marker. We heading out to see the 3 remaining structures that are there. The remaining structures sit on private property but at this time they we were able to drive to site and look at them. They are well maintained by the owner. Very peaceful area. There is a school house, two outhouses, and one large building that might have served as the place where they ate and possibly socialize at. The cemetery has only 3 or headstones but there is a list of people who are buried there. Please be respectful and responsible not to damage or disrupt the area. As it's a great place to see. A great big THANK YOU goes to the people who own and maintain it. Without wonderful people like you, this site would be lost forever."
