There was once a gate that bordered the cemetery, and this looks like the last remnant of
it.  I can't imagine what this looked like.  This picture also shows the ground cover in 
the area.

 

I am guessing that this is some wildflower; perhaps this could be the small flower garden
in the area.

 

Here is the hillside, near the cemetery.  According to Dr. Camarata, young juveniles in the
area used to come to this cemetery and throw the stones over this hillside.  We found some
small pieces of trash to indicate that there has been someone in the cemetery area sometime.
He also told us that recently members of one of the families had come to carry the stones
back to the cemetery.  I am guessing that it might have been a member of the Bond family
since we found so many of the Bond stones remaining.  It also helps to explain why the stones
were all leaning on the trees.
