Tucked neatly into the back of a cornfield (Streetview shows an open field) which the farmer kindly plows to allow access, the Barber cemetery is actually has quite a number of internments. Many of the stones are illegible but I saw dates of internment ranging from 1831 through the early 20th century. The restoration of some of the more heavily damaged stones has resulted in some pretty neat "art" all on its own.
