This cemetery shows all evidence of having been abandoned. Boundary fencing is down on the south. There is no indication that it has been mowed in years. There is a downed tree that nearly destroyed one marker and the remains of the tree are slowly rotting. This cemetery may have been vandalized as evidenced by markers being moved and footer stones pulled up an propped against other markers.
