According to the Laurel Hill pamphlet, after over 100 years of neglect, trees grew among the graves. The Forest Service removed the trees as they posed as hazards to the gravestones during fierce winds when branches and trees fell on them but decided more damage would be caused if the stumps were pulled out of the ground. So the stumps remained.
