Cheeseman park was the cemetery for Denver and there are graves left in the park. Upkeep and care during that time period was terrible. If someone did not have a grave they may have been thrown in another with someone else or just left lying until a mass grave was dug. If someone was buried in a plot that belonged to someone else they would just take the person in there out and leave them. If you go around the time the grass should turn green you can see the graves. This is because the grass over the graves turns green first. You can see sunken spots from the graves.
