Willard Asylum Burial Ground, 5,776 Patients in Unnamed Graves - Sneak Preview
5,776 patients, or inmates of the asylum are buried in a large plot of land only marked by numbers. The cemetery is divided up into sections for Jewish, New Protestant, New Catholic, Old Protestant, Old Catholic, etc.
Of the 5,776 inmates buried here over 1,500 of the graves were dug by one man, a patient named Lawrence Mocha. Lawrence is the only person in the cemetery who now has a name after the tireless efforts of a small group who are attempting to give names to the 5,776 numbers. Lawrence's grave , Marker 45, row 2 is the only one with anything but a small number, as someone has placed a lantern at his grave.
You can read more about Lawrence and the group who are looking to give names to the numbers here:

Years ago, the graves were marked my spiked metal markers with numbers, but to make it easier for the groundskeepers to cut and maintain the lawn, they were replaced by small numbered concrete markers in the ground. In an area with tree's you can still visit graves with the original spiked markers.
One whole side of the cemetery has not been maintained, so you are not able to find the markers since the grass has not been cut.
In another far corner of the cemetery the land is potted with small trenches and holes all in perfect lined formation where, assumingly, the caskets have given to the weight and the earth has dropped.
Check out my photos from 2012 when I explored a different building on this property, and also I'm adding my new photos from 2018 as I finish and post them.
