Host of them had been there niany, many years with the exception of a soldier, a Cornett, who was buried there in IMS. Some of the graves were moved to the upper part of the cemetery, higher up on the hill und some others up to the cemetery of the Rock Creek Methodist Church and the Osborne cemetery back of ta«k.
