Transcription Notes:

“This cemetery can be reached from Hwy 2 by turning southeast onto Spring Valley road and driving about 5 miles. The cemetery lies directly behind the Spring Valley Mennonite church.”

“This cemetery is owned and maintained by the Spring Valley Mennonite Church. I was told by the pastor that there is a marker for every burial in the cemetery.”

“This burial site is situated behind the church, on a slightly sloping area which continues toward trees beyond it. A very calming situation. For some reason my photo made the grass look brown, but it was green when I was there.”

“I did a complete survey of this cemetery on © Aug 09, 1999. I revisited this cemetery on Aug 12, 2003 using my digital camera.”
