Layout of the Circle Section
The Circle Section is the southernmost end of the cemetery and at its highest point. It is looped by the circular drive that makes up the two driveways furthest south, but please be aware the last one is very rough. This is about the most complex layout area of the cemetery.
The Circle Section is divided into Blocks labeled A–T, but we have no evidence that A, B, C or M include any graves, likely because of the steep slopes in the areas. There are no records of burials there, but we have heard that some earlier interments in those sections were moved elsewhere in the cemetery.
Most lots in this Section are 6 graves wide, but some vary due to the contours of the driveways and other factors. Space numbers within lots in this section begin at the driveway or grass/concrete walkway between each block, So in the map above, the space numbers for most lots are as follows:
Walkway - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 | 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - Walkway
A copy of the original plat map of this section is included below. The map above was hand drawn using a personal survey of the area combined with various other resources. A key difference is the walkway between blocks G–L and N–S was filled in with grave spaces, thich created additional lots not shown on the original map. The yellow and blue colors in this map are simply to help discern one block from another, since in many cases there is no gap between them.
