    1. Re: Savidge Lake/Savidge Lake Cemetery History
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DIB.2ACE/340.4 Message Board Post: I am a volunteer at the Le Sueur Co, Genealogy center and they have a file on the Savidge's in the county. He lived on the edge of the lake and was a preacher in the area and was the main carpenter in building the historical church in Cleveland. So I feel the lake was named after him. The cemetary rested on his neighbor's land, rumer had it that there was a love connection but can't prove it. But Savidge Children were among the first burried there, and that is why the cemetary was so named also.
