About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The former county poor farm was later used as a nursing home, and is now owned by Southern Illinois University. Burials are said to be located in a grove behind the building.

Building has since been torn down and completely removed. No markers of any kind were ever used here.
