The cemetery is located off a dirt road on a wooded hillside. The grounds are overgrown, which seems to be the case even when the hospital was active. The cracked identical stones are marked only with an "M" or an "F", and a number. These numbers range through the hundreds to four full digits. These were the patients that died in the hospital that went unclaimed by their family.
Dixmont State Hospital, was founded in 1848 and began as the Insane Department of the Western Pennsylvania Hospital in Pittsburgh.
