This cemetery in the middle of nowhere is known as the Lone Oak Cemetery of St. Gabriel, Louisiana. It is a fairly new cemetery, not even 10 years old, and is the resting place for prisoners of Elayn Hunt Correctional Institution who have no families to bury them. Under this peaceful, ancient live oak may they rest in peace. The oak is a registered member of the Live Oak Society and is named "Maryland Farms Oak". It's trunk has a girth of 26 feet and the tree spreads 140 feet.
