About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

This cemetery contains the graves of a prominent local physician (Dr. Mortimer Delvill Bartlett), his wife, and approximately eight other members of their extended family.

According to the landowners (Edwin and Patricia Mulvay), Dr. Bartlett was a prominent "social diseases" doctor whose practice attracted patients from New York City, Chicago, and Washington D.C. Patients would come into the Pennsboro train depot (7.5 miles to the southeast) then go to the livery, where a driverless horse and carriage would be waiting. The horse is said to have automatically taken patients to Dr. Bartlett's house, then taken them back to the Pennsboro livery after their treatment. Mr. Mulvay said that he has been told many times that this story is true. Mr. Mulvay also reported that the doctor's house is located at the base of the hill below the cemetery and has recently collapsed. The grandparents of the current landowners were contemporaries of the Bartlett family and lived on land owner by Dr. Bartlett. The Mulvays recently found a book in their home which was either written by or about Dr. Bartlett.
