Forgotten Cemetery

This was surrounded by a locked gate, but there was no indication of who owned the property and there was no name for the cemetery that I could find.

  2. I've since discovered that this is Montfort Cemetery - see the Wikipedia entry here:

  3. This little cemetery is well-known to high school students at Schreiber, who walk by it on their way down the steps to the student parking lot behind the main post office--but aside from them, it's hardly a site that's been integrated into the life of the community. I wonder if it receives any attention on Memorial Day.
