Also in the cemetery can be found 12 flat rocks that possibly had hand carved initials on them in the past, no sign of anything on them in 1991. There were 15 graves moved from the old Hazel Cemetery to the present Hazel Cemetery. You can only see where 11 of them are at, by stones, or depressions in the ground. There are 7 MORE depressions throughout the cemetery, the size of a grave/casket. According to my grandmother in 1991, she died 1996, there are 4 MORE graves that there is no depression in the ground for. She grew up as a child going to this cemetery every weekend to clean it up, pull weeds, get rid of blown down limbs and having a picnic afterwards. It was every weekend during the summer thing that they did, she told me. Also, according to my grandmother, the 21 cedar TREES, all serve as grave MARKERS. She remembers six of the trees being for babies, 2 of which are for her own 2 baby brothers, Joe Curtis Hazel and another brother named either Charles Edward or Paul Edward Hazel.
