HISTORY
The Bula Cemetery was established in 1929. It was only used for a few years. The cemetery was not used for a number of years and fell into disuse. Around 1976 a cemetery association founded to restore the cemetery. The identity of the those buried here has been lost over time, but through research by the association and others they found eleven people who are buried here. The memorial stone shown above was place to remember them. The cemetery is still active, but the association required a permanent marker be placed on all graves to ensure no one else is forgotten.[2]
