The original cemetery occupied Sections 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, and 12. Many removals from farm and roadside burial grounds were made according to the records. These began in the early 1860's.The grounds have three buildings. The first, built in 1867, was a hold vault for burials to be made later for a variety of reasons. The second, a small chapel, erected in 1913, was used upon request for funeral services and for some time by a small church group. It is called a Memorial Chapel, erected by Lindie M. Groh-Johnson, born August 24, 1852 and died August 11, 1930. Andrew Groh, born July 24, 1836 and died August 24, 1912, was her father. Added later was a shed for equipment and tools, a restroom, and an office for the custodian. The cemetery is located on a knoll, planted many years ago with pines, now towering homes for birds of all kinds, creating a most pleasant setting.The following listing has been copied from the listing in the Stalker The reason for the text being in slightly different format than it was in the Stalker, is so the computer could alphabetize by surname and include all information pertaining to that name, including the row and section. For that reason, entries such as "his wife" had to be entered "wife of ___." I have also chosen to omit most of the periods and commas that should be included in text, but are really not important in lists such as these.
