Beginning in October 1999 this cemetery was surveyed by Lawrence and Sue Dale and in the process was subdivided into 9 sections, each individual buried there is now marked with a location in the cemetery. We also prepared a plat map and plans are to have an enclosed case under the pavillion to house a copy of this survey and the map. Finally on 17 Nov 1999 we completed the walking portion of the cemetery and began the keypunch portion of the work.
