Comments: Ezekiel Sayre Cemetery, Mason Co., West VirginiaDates or text in Red are not inscribed on the tombstone and have either been calculated based on death date or are as a result of research on the individual.

We visited this cemetery in mid-April 2004, and have stopped by to look at various times of the year prior to taking photos in 2004.  At every visit, the grass was high and fallen leaves deep on the ground.  Despite this, briars and fallen branches have obviously been kept from the cemetery, so it is apparently being maintained to some degree. It would be good if it were easier to access for family members and researchers - like no lock on the gate, or a path around the gate that visitors could use. Perhaps that will happen at some time in the future.
