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.

The Pisgah Home (also called the Pisgah Ranch, Pisgah Home Colony, Pisgah Mountain Home, and various other names) was a charitable home for men who were troubled and on the skids. Many had addiction problems, especially to alcohol, others had been crippled or otherwise incapacitated, often by logging accidents. Many were in need of old age care, while some came to the home in their 20's or 30's.

The property for the home was first acquired in about 1913, and people probably started living there by 1915. The cemetery probably was established shortly after, as the earliest burials we have found were in 1916. The home was abandoned around 1945-1946.

Today the cemetery is completely abandoned and overgrown. The markers were all of wood, so the only ones that survive now are the ones removed from the cemetery many years ago by scavengers.
