from Joann McGhee

Henry Lance, Calvin's father is also buried here

Clara Brown says that there are "lots of graves marked with concrete blocks only and probably others with out any markers. There are about 50 markers, some readable and others not readable. There are 5 Civil War soldiers markers. The oldest marked burial is in 1852, a SULCER child and the last one 1925. It was surveyed by the State of Illinois July 5, 1906."
