The cemetery has an arched name sign over the entrance gate, a circle drive through it, and an exit gate.  The cemetery is
well kept, fenced, and the stones are generally in good condition.  A few stones are broken.

Military Markers at front of cemetery by the gate:
Main View
Spanish American War
Civil War
WWI
WWII
Korean War
Korean Killed in Action
Vietnam
Killed in Action
Veterans Tribute

Read October 1998 by Fayrene Bonebrake.   Submitted by the Upshur County Historical Commission.
Thanks to Gayla Edwards Hart photographing the entire cemetery, 2007.

As hard as we all try, we are human and sometimes when reading a cemetery we miss a grave covered with leaves, fireants, or bushes. Sometimes the headstone has sunk and is mostly underground. Our area also has many graves only marked with iron ore rocks and even many unmarked graves. There are headstones that have long ago been destroyed by the elements or even vandalizm, and are hard to impossible to read the details. We would appreciate it if you would let us know if you did not find your relative which was buried
here, and would appreciate your letting us use the information you know about them. With the combined efforts of us all, we can make the Upshur County website bigger and better.
