This abandoned (last burial, 1975) cemetery is on a deadend, unpaved street and is outlined by a deteriorating metal fence. Almost all of its more than 200 graves are legibly marked. Canvassed by Lucille Glenn and Jean Anderson (1980). This cemetery was established by Erwin Mills for its employees who had no other place to be buried. When Erwin Mills was sold to Burlington Industries, responsibility for the cemetery was given to the Knights of Pythias.
