Several days back we mentioned Harrison, William, and Jacob Keim that owned land near the Keim Cemetery in Thayer Co, NE. Delmer Keim identified those mentioned as sons of Joseph Keim, b. 01 September 1823 in Somerset Co, PA. David Keim, another subscriber to this list, explained that the Keim Cemetery (or burial plot) was located in one corner of a quarter section of ground that was owned in the early 1900's by Jacob Keim who was a brother to his gg-grandfather Joseph Keim. I forwarded this information to Delmer and he mentioned it to his cousins. Following is Delmer's last email to me: Cindy, I was telling my cousin about this; he went down to take a look and it is just like David Keim said. Following is the note Delmer rec'd from his cousin: > > We went to Omaha today by way of US 81 and stopped by after we found > The Lone Pine Farm. Significant in that is was named such by a Joseph > Keim. It is one mile south and 1 and a quarter west of the highway jct. > into Bruning. Joseph built the house, a three story house out of > limestone obtained elsewhere, in 1880. He died in 1888. Just west of > the farmstead is the old Keim cemetary. BINGO!!!!!!! > There will be more pictures to follow but the first one is of the > cemetary plot and has our Great-great grandparents Joseph and Mary > Keim laid to rest in it. Great grandfather William's first wife, Laura, > is also there. There are others but I need to get this into some kind > of order first. > Below is the overall cemetary looking east with the farm in the back- > ground behind the evergreen windbreak. The people living in the house > have enlarged it a lot and their ancestory, Bruning, established the > community 7 years after the Keims started farming the area. > ___________________ Delmer included one photo w/the email, but photos can't be forwarded to this list.
