Finally got around to reshooting this page.
I'm still not sure why I've decided to keep this place on the site; ultimately it's just another small cemetery. Maybe it's because it was one of my first accidental finds. Maybe it's because of its location and the fact that the road sign has been missing for quite a while now. Maybe it's because of the condition of the cemetery. I just like it, and that's good enough for me.

At the end of Cemetery Road, in Eagleswood Township, is a small cemetery that backs up to the woods. This is the Staffordville Cemetery, and while not the oldest graveyard around, it does have what few others nearby do - some graves have outlines, something they stopped doing 150 years ago. Some graves are in pretty bad shape, while others are just weathered. There's never a shortage of mosquitoes here either. I get bitten up every time I visit.
