Girton-Cemetery

It is now in the Crimson Ridge Subdivision and thanks to the homeowners, the cemetery is mowed and still watched over.

Girton Cemetery is located in an enclosed area on private land southwest of Grangeville. The homestead land was in T30N R2E, parts of Sec 25 & 26. It had been neglected for years but in the 1980's was renovated with a newspaper article about the event which I haven't been able to come up with yet.
