Who is responsible for the upkeep of this cemetery? Has it been turned over to the Union Twp trustees? Is it still owned by the Suiter family? Reason I am asking is that it is being neglected big time. I visited there a few days ago. I literally had to cut a path thru the briers and underbrush to get to it.

Good morning! Here's another obituary. - Jean Griesan Colorado Died on the 6th inst., in Guyandotte, Dr. GIRARD C. RICKETTS, aged about 40 years. He was an excellent physician, and a very worthy citizen. Ironton Register, March 10, 1859

Hi! Here's the obituary for the daughter of the deceased listed in the last obituary. Rolen Brammer, Sr., lost his grown daughter and wife within two months. - Jean Griesan Colorado Died on January 16, in Union township, MAHALA BRAMMER, daughter of Rolen Brammer, sen., aged 24 years. She too had been a member of the same Church for ten years, and died in the happiness of her faith in Christ. Ironton Register, March 10, 1859

Hi! Here's another obituary. - Jean Griesan Colorado Died on February 23d, in Union township, Mrs. CATHERINE BRAMMER, wife of Rolen Brammer, sen., aged 47 years. She had been a member of the United Brethren Church for twenty years, and died with full faith in her acceptance by Christ. Ironton Register, March 10, 1859

Hi! Here's yet another obituary. - Jean Griesan Colorado A SUDDEN DEATH. On the 27th of April, 1859, JOHN CHAPLINE came to his death, on the farm of the Rev. J. D. Ray, in Harrison township, Gallia county, Ohio, by the falling of a tree, which struck him on the head and back, and produced instant death. This melancholy catastrophe has been followed by lamentation and astonishment throughout the neighborhood and community in which he resided. The deceased was a young man, generally respected for his good behavior, and for his peaceful, quiet and orderly manner of life. It was truly said of him by one of his neighbors, that "he died without an enemy." He was suddenly cut off in the flower of his youth, being in the fifteenth year of his age. Serious and thoughtful, upright in his conversation and deportment, and being much given to prayer and the reading of the Scriptures, it is fondly hoped that the germ of spiritual life was implanted within him by the spirit of Christ, and that it now buds and blooms in the life and immortality of the heavenly world. His mortal remains were conveyed to Rome township in Lawrence county, Ohio, and were deposited with the dust of his kindred until the judgment of the great day. John Chapline was the only son of John and Matilda Chapline, deceased, late of the township, county and State just referred to. He and a younger sister were put under our care nearly six years ago, by Col. Lewis Anderson and Mr. Jacob Proctor, their legal guardians. They are dear in us, and it is like spilling our heart's blood to part with them. With wounded spirits we mourn over the sad calamity that has befallen our beloved boy amidst the charms of youth and the pleasing anticipations which he so fondly cherished in regard to the pleasures and prospects of this life. But severe as is this sudden and unexpected calamity, we desire to pray for submission to the will of God, and to say to Him with penitent and believing hearts: "Not my will, but thine be done." This melancholy occurrence will be deeply felt and lamented by his surviving sisters, his brother-in-law, his guardians, and by other numerous relatives and friends. The light of the Chapline family is probably extinguished by the untimely death of this only son. PILGRIM Mr. Ebenezer, Ohio, May 6th, 1859 Ironton Register, May 19, 1859

Hi! Here's an obituary. I can only guess that this man was travelling from Lawrence County to Kansas where he met his death. - Jean Died, suddenly, in Wathena, Kansas Territory, on the 8th of May, HUGH D. JACKSON, in the 26th year of his age. This unexpected dispensation of an inscrutable Providence is a heavy affliction to his bereaved family, and they have the sympathy of all who know the warmth of heart and generous impulses of the deceased. - It is a comfort to know that his remains were conveyed by sympathizing friends to St. Joseph, Missouri, and interred in the cemetery in that place. Ironton Register, May 19, 1859
