Among the notable features here is the only full figure life size human statue gravestone in the county. It presides regally from the top of tall monument. Although it is not clearly identified, it marks the Baldwin family lot and presumably is a depiction of W. A. Baldwin. Although there are quite a few early burial dates on the family monument, there appear to be merely memorials. There is no trace of the family in the county prior to 1870.
The lack of records for the cemetery is source of deep rough frustration for many researchers. That caretaker of the time boasted his memory was so accurate that he did not need written records and with his death all information was lost. Most of the small amount of additional information comes from efforts to research known burials by Nunda township officials when they took over management cemetery in 1968.
