A 1969 survey conducted by the Pioneer America Society's Tony Wrenn described a 54'x 60' fence surrounding three graves with head and footstones. Thick undergrowth hid any additional burials. By 1998 the gravestone of HULDAH COFFER (1840-1903) was surrounded by a 15'x 15' wooden fence. A paved walking path runs along the south edge of the site.The gravestones of JOSHUA COFFER (1814-1862) and JOSHUA COFFER, JR. (1862-1881) are being stored by the Burke Center Conservancy.
