It is also a burial spot for Revolutionary War soldiers, as well as some mass graves, one for Civil War soldiers and another for a group of pioneers who died of cholera around 1850. Orbs, strange noises and a floating apparition all have been reported here.

A friend of mine and I were in the cemetery on September 23rd 2018 doing doing rubbings of gravestones and taking pictures and the first one that we did it was the man’s birthday his name was JD McCormick. Later on when we went through the pictures it totally looks like somebody standing in the back of the cemetery and there was no one there…
