This information was recorded by my Great Aunt Daisy DeSilva who passed away many years ago. Her daughter Anne Willis shared the information with my sister. I think that it must be a small family plot. My mother remembers seeing it when she played in her Grandfathers pasture. The people listed are the only ones that my Aunt Daisy found there. --Sue Haake, October 16, 1997

My name is Bill Gaeta, I was married to Nancy Rogers, her father Clyde Rogers was Daisy's brother. I occasionally worked on the farm for Clyde. I know where the plot is, it was wet ground and the story I remember is that some time in the 1800's, those that were buried there that still had family in the area were moved to a more suitable resting place. I also seem to remember in the 1980's there was concern that efforts were being made to obscure the graves still there.
