  	The Douglass section is located in the extreme back, left corner of Wilson Cemetery. It is fenced on all sides and therefore is not accessible in order to be maintained, mowed or trimmed like the rest of Wilson Cemetery. There were too many high weeds, dangerous amounts of tree debris and poison ivy in the area to get any closer to the stones in order to photograph them from better angles.
