Bailey Cemetery

This cemetery is in the midst of a new subdivision occupying some of the lots. It is maintained but not fenced.
You will notice some of the white bordered stones here. These are stones that have been restored from broken parts. They sink the broken parts into a cement mixture with the inscription exposed. The shape is left like the original stone but a couple of inches wider and taller. This is a blend of white concrete, white sand, and hydrated lime, but generally the concrete ingredient is less than normal so that the overall strength allows for more flexibility. The final product can expand and contract with rain, heat & cold, and not crumble.

The photo shown is of the Whitworth Cemetery which is 500ft S/W in the Cedar Springs subdivision (not the Bailey Cemetery which is unmarked on the Whitworth farmstead).
