FIELD STONES: Field stones were often used prior to the 1900's to mark the graves of individuals who were thieves, colored, or for whom money was not available for a conventional headstone. These stones represent "Unknown" individuals. The field stones in this cemetery were replaced by 16-inch diameter stones installed flush with the ground in March 2012, in order to reduce mowing time, damage to mowers, and risk of tripping on the field stones.
