interesting to learn why so many old burials have fences around the graves: https://cemeteryinsightsandbeyond.wordpress.com/2018/05/19/wrought-iron-barriers/#:~:text=Fences%20around%20cemeteries%20%E2%80%94%2D%20especially%20wrought,up%20recently%20buried%20human%20remains.

While researching the internet about this graveyard, I came across this list of who was buried there and what they died from. http://www.apcrp.org/FAIRBANK/FAIRBANK_CEM_MAST.htm Bronchopneumonia was the most popular cause of death. Many people would move to Arizona for the dry air in the hopes that they would be cured (or at least live a few years longer.)
