About the Burial

This cemetery consists of one stone on the shoulder of Kansas State Highway 7. The stone is surrounded with large iron pipes to protect it from the mowers. The stone is on the east end of the enclosure facing the highway and is filled with overgrowth and bushes. A child's whistle in the form of a football is tied to the iron pipe beside the stone. Hedge Lane runs beside the highway on the west side, and there is a parking area where you can easily and safely walk to the stone.
