The Potter's Field


Surrounding the outer edge of the cemetary is the Potter's Field. Used for people that died with no family, or were too poor to afford a proper burial, markers were used to denote where they are interred, and a number (i.e., 289) so that proper records could be kept. The large stone between the two trees has a large rose (or a peony) on it; unfortunately it's too worn to get the name and date on it.
