Alberson Cemetery analysis

Alberson Cemetery is located in the Hurricane Creek section of the Buffalo River Watershed, East Side.  This cemetery is located on a hill above the intersection of Hurricane Creek Road and Old Penny Road. There are 18 or so fieldstone marked graves, five of which are Alberson children, and perhaps another four to six unmarked graves.
