Fifield Cemetery - Buda, Illinois - Iron Fence

This is truly a pioneer cemetery, containing graves of some of the earliest settlers in the area. There are no burials here after about 1905. This cemetery was an overgrown jungle, for many years, but has recently been restored by descendants of some of these families. A lot of the stones have been damaged by fallen trees.

 

The iron fence was probably made by Buda Iron Works, Buda, Illinois.
