    1. [SCKY] BARREN CO - CHENAULT CEMETERY DEED
    2. Sandi Gorin
    3. This is a cemetery deed - not seldom seen. The Odd Fellows Cemetery is the old name for Glasgow Municipal Cemetery. There is now an Odd Fellows Cemetery on W. Cherry Street in Glasgow which is African-American. This is a pre-printed form. The Odd Fellows sold the cemetery to the City of Glasgow. ODD FELLOWS CEMETERY In consideration of the sum of thirty five Dollars, paid by James CHENAULT to the Secretary of the Board of Trustees of the Odd Fellows Cemetery, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, I Theo. GOLDNAMMER, Noble Grand of Glasgow Lodge No. 65, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, do hereby, for and on behalf of said Lodge, convey to James Chenault one Lot No. 57 in said Cemetery, being 28 by 28 feet in size, as can be seen by reference to the plot and survey of said grounds on file in the office of said Board of Trustees. To have and to hold the same unto him and his heirs forever with covenants of general warranty. But it is expressly understood that said lot is never to be used or improved for any purpose inconsistent with the purposes for which it and the grounds connected with it have been set apart and dedicated; and further, that the entire sole government and control of said lot and grounds for the purposes aforesaid, is reserved to said Lodge and its said Board of Trustees under such by-laws and regulations as they may adopt. In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and seal, and caused the same to be attested by the Secretary under the seal of this Lodge. This the 4th day of March 1889. /s/ Theo Goldnammer, Noble Grnd. Attest: C. D. DICKEY, Secretary. Rev. James Chenault is buried at Glasgow Municipal Cemetery; born 1842, died 1915; Masonic Emblem. Many more of his family are also buried there. And, when I bought my plot there, it was just quite a bit more than it was in 1889!
