This is a perfect post for Halloween week because there is nothing spookier than a cemetery almost in your own backyard! I posted four more gravestones from this cemetery last month. This is the last group of photographs. There were about eleven standing gravestones in this cemetery. The rest of the stones were fallen, broken or illegible. Otherwise, the little cemetery was in very nice shape, and well mowed and tended. It is one of only two private cemeteries in Londonderry, the other one being the Kendall Burial Ground.
