                        ..............................................................................................

                             

                   .......This cemetery, whose front faces the church building, is composed of
                                   three distinct areas:
                             1) an open center and rear:
                                           condition not too "bad", 
                                                       having a lot of short under-growth;
                             2) a fenced "Lovern" family section:
                                           on the right front corner-----
                                                    presently under control of Mother Nature, 
                                                              and, earth beings,
                                                                         that have used it as a dumping place
                                                                                  for brush and tree cuttings;
                             3) a fenced "Pigg" family section:
                                                  on the left front corner-----
                                                                  this section, in 2001, 
                                                                                  was cleaned "to the ground", 
                                                                                               tombstones re-set and aligned,
                                                                                  graves filled(all have tombstones), 
                                                                  placement of flowers, and, 
                                                  the total frontage area cleared about eight feet in width. 
                                 UPDATE: 
we cousins, listed below, cut our way into this location again,
                                        this year, June 2003, and, sprayed a de-foliant chemical over the 
                                                 entire grave site area, and, across the front entrance area.
