Regarding Elias Witter and the Witter Cemetery property. The property that the Witter Cemetery is located on was deeded for school and church purposes in 1872 by Simon Peter Smith and his brother, Capt. George Washington Russell Smith. The school and church was known for a long time as "Smith Chapel" and the school was originally called "Bolinger School". Capt. G. W. R. Smith's wife was a Bolinger. I have not seen any land ownership in the Witter area for Elias Witter. His land was owned up Baldwin Creek near St. Paul. As I understand it, he only ran a store at Witter. Joy Russell

Is there a list of people buried in the Witter Cemetery?
