From annie: "This is a partial personal survey from Oct 1940. This group all belongs to me so I would appreciate
hearing from any who are researching these names. This grouping is also buried in close proximity to
one another. The list was recorded in the order they are buried. The location of the graves would be
toward the rear 1/3 of the cemetery. When the survey was done, they started at the right rear, worked
in rows, out toward the road. () are my comments."
