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.

This graveyard is in Rapho Township.

The stones are in a concrete base along the property line between two farms. They are reportedly from two separate graveyards that once existed in the area, the Rohrer and Stauffer graveyards. Many of the Rohrer stones were moved to Erisman Mennonite Cemetery.

In 1983, Carl K. Metzler wrote to the Lancaster Mennonite Historical Society to say that sometime during the 1950s, he had helped his father remove the stones from this deteriorating graveyard and preserve them in this manner. The site is the same as the original graveyard.
