Bocock-Hobaugh Cemetery
July 2000

I was hoping this stone said Priscilla, for Priscilla Hobaugh. Yet, I think it is just
wishful thinking.
I took all of these pictures for two reasons. The first was to show the ground cover that
was all over the area. It really helped us to understand where the original cemetery might
have been. The other reason was to show you how many stones were just randomly placed by
trees and seemingly placed aside. It was truly sad. I still can't believe that a cemetery
could be left in this type of condition.
This picture was a mistake, but then the more I think about it really helps to shed some
darkness on the true existence of this sacred ground. This happens to be my favorite
picture of the cemetery.
