There is no evidence that the old stones were left behind. There is evidence though of many unmarked grave sites.
Note - My name is Alicia Holm and I am the daughter of Bert and Evelyn Holm who
used to own the property that this cemetery sits on.
In the description entered on this site, I noticed that it states that there is
no evidence that the tombstones still remain in said cemetery. This information
is incorrect inasmuch as the stones are still there. About thirty years
ago, my mother and I went into the cemetery and attempted to clear the stones
and straighten some of the ones that were leaning out. Alicia Holm - February
