Layout of Sections 5 and 6
Section 5, in blue, includes the areas on either side of Driveway 6 (which is very rough). To the south is Block X (immediately adjacent Section 4, Block 25). To the north are Blocks Y and Z. These are 6-space lots. Sections Y and Z have a row of infant interments (lots 25 and 26) near Stanton Road. Notice that the numbering pattern for Block X is different from Y and Z.
Section 6, in yellow, is the other half of the area between driveways B and C and contains two blocks, 1 and 2. The western portion of these blocks are fairly typical 6-space lots. The western half of this section was used for infant graves, few of which are marked, making accurate mapping these lots all essentially impossible. We know they do not follow a normal pattern, due to lot sizes and different numbering. The ledger entries for these lots are below for individuals to explore, but we caution that we are certain the layout is not exactly as shown on the simplified grids.
Space numbers within lots in this section begin at the driveways and grassy walkways between each block, So in the diagram below, the space numbers for most lots are as follows:
Walkway or Driveway - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 | 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - Walkway or Driveway
