Update

An article in the June 26, 2003 East Aurora Advertiser reported that the Wales Town Board
has voted to appropriate $1,200 to be used to survey the South Wales Cemetery.
They have hired a local surveyor to chart the location of the graves so that volunteers
can mark them so that proper names can be put on the headstones.
