Hoffman Cemetery

Hoffman Cemetery is just outside of Smithton, it sets on a small hill that overlooks a valley where field are planted with crops. It is a beautiful site. The meeting house sits close to the edge of the hill that overlook the road. There is a road that goes into it that makes a U around the building. You enter by the left side, and to your left are the recent graves, in the middle are recent ones and old ones. To the right of the U are a couple new ones and a lot of old ones.
