While I agree the gravesites should be documented, if all of the headstones have been moved or lost, what would be the point in having the current land owners relocate the graves? At that point wouldn’t all of the people be reburied as unknown? Wouldn’t it be a better plan to document the site and leave as is for the small chance that a family member might stumble upon a death record (or family book) stating a family member is there?
