A very wide path near the center of the cemetery was probably the original entrance road from Painesville Ravenna Road (Rt. 86). Apparently the road contours were flatened, leaving a large drop from the cemetery down to the road. A new short entrance was made at the lower end and a gate constructed there. The area has quite a sharp rise.

Both sections were read from the "center" drive. Section 1 rows were read from south to north and the stones from west to east. Section two was read the opposite, the rows from north to south and the stones from east to west. See the map for a clearer understanding.

These inscriptions were proofed and updated 8 May 2000.
