This is actually in Tincup and is no where near the cabins. My dad spent some of his summers in Tincup back in the 60's. His friends parents had a cabin there and their name was Seeton and we found 3 of the family's graves in that cemetary :'(. There was a section of the cemetary that had infants and babies, all unnamed. They probably all died in the harsh mountain winters :'(. About 75% of the graves were unmarked or didn't have a name :(.

I can imagine that is hard to survive as a child at that age of time and in the mountains at winter time,
but its still sad to see. :sad5:
