Well, I am beginning to get a sense of closure on my mystery cemetery at birdville/ten mile hollow/dover forge. MH Septor was the volunteer caretaker of the property and the birdhouse maker. Someone who did know the family suggested that he "faked" a little cemetery and put the bones there to scare kids and vandals from the site and throw them off from going further and finding the real cemetery. There began problems with vandalism and I guess he was trying to keep people from going back there. Vandals were the ones who pulled out all the white picket crosses. I'll post the 2 pictures I found.
