Frederick Tanner is listed in "The Culpeper Classes" of Virginia during the Revolutionary War. Frederick Tanner and his wife Maria (nee Rouse) migrated to Boone County in 1813 from Culpeper County, Virginia. He was a signer of the 2nd constitution of the Hopeful Lutheran Church and many of their descendants are members of Hopeful Lutheran Church today. He purchased his 160 acres located in Florence KY for $480 on December 8, 1813. Arrangements are now final for a dedication ceremony on Sunday, October 17th at 3:00 pm at the gravesite of Frederick Tanner on his old farm land which is near the 10th hole of the World of Sport Golf Course in Florence KY. The ceremony will be conducted by the descendants and the SAR ~ Sons of the American Revolution ~ with color guard, posting of colors, music (drums, fife, taps on the trumpet). There will be a pastor for invocation & benediction and a rifle squad to provide a gun salute.

Because of the date they purchased this land, it is thought that Maria (nee Rouse) Tanner is buried there with her husband Frederick Tanner on their old farm land. As on December 8, 1813, Allen Crisler sold this 160 acres to Frederick Tanner for $480 And his wife Maria Rouse Tanner is thought to have died in the year 1814. Therefore, we did include her name with his on the memorial monument that has been installed and being donated by the descendants. ( see picture at the website >http://www.eastonhistory.com/TannerDedication.pdf ) The DAR recorded this cemetery in "Kentucky Cemetery Records Volume I, Copyright 1960 by the Kentucky Society Daughters of the American Revolution". Burials in this cemetery are : ---F.T. (F.T. initials for Frederick Tanner) The DAR recorded that these initials were cut by hand on limestone rock (This rock is no longer there. Frederick's wife Maria Rouse Tanner is thought to be buried there also.) ---Susanna Tanner Zimmerman > daughter of Frederick and Maria Tanner who married Joshua Zimmerman. A good part of her gravestone still exists there. ---Joshua Zimmerman > his gravestone is in good condition. d. July 9, 1852, aged 80 yrs, 11 mos This should be an impressive ceremony by the SAR, with presentation of wreaths, posting of colors, history pamphlet, 13 Folds of the Flag, Rifle Salute, music (drums, fife, taps on the trumpet), and Benediction by descendant Pastor Charles Aylor.
