Despite being somewhat difficult to reach, due to road access being
controlled by DOE, it appears that the cemetery is still regularly
visited and fairly well maintained.Common sense isn't.

There are a wide variety of headstones, and dates of death range
from mid-1800's to current date.
| Quote of the moment |
| Those peculiar social sensibilities nourished by our own peculiar political principles, while they enhance the true dignity of a prosperous American, do but minister to the added wretchedness of the unfortunate; first, by prohibiting their acceptance of what little random relief charity may offer; and, second, by furnishing them with the keenest appreciation of the smarting distinction between their ideal of universal equality and their grind-stone experience of the practical misery and infamy of poverty. |
