it sounds like there is quite a bit of disagreement about approval. It states that the deed sold 49.5 acres of land for regular usage with 0.5 to be protected as a family burial ground.

Most of the headstones were from the mid 1800's and were actually those of founding families from the area.

They've lost a bit of their history by doing this.
