Confusion on North Forest Cemetery and lost graves

Can anyone tell me if the North Forest Cemetery (I believe the sign says St. Ann's Catholic cemetery as well) had been run by the Presbyterians at one point or if it might have been a non-denominational cemetery somewhere along the line? My great-aunt, Hallie Butterfield O'Rourke, was buried there in 1992 next to her grandfather Oren Butterfield. The cemetery deed that shows the sale of the plot to Hallie indicates that it was handled by the trustees of the First Presbyterian Church of Marienville. Hallie's funeral was the first time I had been there and I tried to find the cemetery recently in which the cemetery had St. Ann's listed on the sign. From what I remember, this cemetery appeared to be the very one where Hallie and Oren are buried, but after a search through the cemetery, I was unable to find their graves. Is there another North Forest cemetery??? I am not familiar with this area. Also, is there a cemetery office that I can contact to find out exactly where their plots are? I know it's Lot 6, section 2, row 1 - I just don't know how I missed the graves.
