Old Village Cemetery

This cemetery is located on Tobey Road and is across the street from the New Village and Tobey cemeteries.  This is only a partial list of the gravestones and contains those that I took pictures of.  I do not have photos of all of the stones.  I will add the photos at a later time.  If you have a photo and/or transcription of a stone in this cemetery, please send it to me via e-mail.  Thanks!
