Visiting
The cemetery is a common place for vandalism. Since February 2008, the visitation laws for the cemetery have been made much stricter; with visitation hours 8am to dusk. Any persons caught on the property outside of those hours are being prosecuted due to the long history of vandalism and loitering. Also, there is no parking on Goodleburg Road, extending 1/2 mile from the cemetery in either direction.
