Yes the house has been remodeled god only knows how many times, I am going to the libary tomorrow to look for old plat maps of the area and see if I can find one older than 1850. the graves are actually before 1855 not sure why they are not shown on the map.
The maps will help, from what I see I don't even know where the roads were. Roads get moved, so do cemeteries. Head stones tell you the age of the making, not their original location. If a parcel was sold off the owners may have made a new cemetery for their family nearer to home. It may have been where the parking lot is now. I'm sure you know this but I just thought I'd throw it out there.
