Subject: Cemetery Treasure Hunters

I need some help on this topic. I recently encountered people with metal
detectors and shovels in a small cemetery. The cemetery is maintained and
owned by Red Lion U M Church, less than a quarter mile away, that had its
first, smaller church at the site. Whether a cemetery is actively maintained
or overgrown, are there laws in Delaware that protect them from people
"treasure hunting" on the site? It just seemed inappropriate to me but I
would appreciate any comments. Thanks, Lexie
