There are four remaining headstones with inscriptions, five footstones with initials, and a over fifteen fieldstones marking depressions in the ground which are probably other graves. At least fourteen of the graves were surrounded by an ornate wire fence on wooden posts. Most of the wire has rusted away and fallen down along with the rotted wooden posts. There appear to have been four strands of the ornate wire afixed to the posts at eight inches apart. The fenced area appears to be about 60 feet by 30 feet rectangular. At least four graves are outside the fenced area, and there may be others.
Judith L. Moore, a Woodlake resident, has a survey map of the site, dated 12 March 1923, which indicates the graveyard is 100 x 100 feet. Judith continues to research the original owners and who might be buried here.
