The letters on the memorial cairn are not "crisp" and, even in the best of light conditions, getting a good clear photograph is virtually impossible. Each grave is marked by a pristine white cross without identification and, as such, a photo of one of these crosses has been added to each memorial.

Predominately German speaking settlers from this area are buried there.

The granite headstone is a summary of all those buried there. Only a few of the original glasswork headstones remain.

There was a school but it has long since ceased operations.
