Summary
A small community cemetery contacted the State Historical Society of North Dakota for information on locating unmarked burials, as the decendent community was interested in finding their relatives. In collaboration with the community, the archaeology division of the society conducted a geophysical survey, including GPR, electric resistivity, and multiple lens and thermal drone flights of the cemetery. This presentation discusses the findings of this survey.
