This picture tells the story.  The Norris Cemetery, once a remote family burial ground in the 19th century, found itself as part of a farmer's field in the late 20th.  The land owner became tired of having to avoid the burial ground when working the land, so he cast the stones away and plowed over the graves.  In the early 20th century, he was not prosecuted since laws protecting pioneer cemeteries were not enacted until 1973.  The metal road sign, pictured above, memorializes the location of the Norris Cemetery and decries the desecration of what should have been sacred ground.
