Our family suffered the same fate at the old Oak Hill Cemetery in Old Butler (Wauwatosa). The Wisconsin Old Cemetery Society helped clean it up a number of years ago, though our family, at the rear, does not "enjoy" the full benefit of the new greening and cleaning efforts. You can register as a person interested in the well-being of the cemetery by calling the State Historical Society. Here is some info. from their website. >>Are cemeteries and burials given special protection? Under Wisconsin law, Native American burial mounds, unmarked burials, and all marked and unmarked cemeteries are protected from intentional disturbance. If anyone suspects that a Native American burial mound or an unmarked or marked burial is present in an area, the Burial Sites Preservation Office should be notified. If you have any questions concerning the law, please contact the Coordinator of the Burial Sites Preservation Program Dr. Leslie Eisenberg at 1-800-342-7834 or 608-264-6503.>> http://www.shsw.wisc.edu/histbuild/smartgrowth/asi.htm Do call her -- perhaps she can put you in touch with the old cemetery society and can send out the forms to register in case any further insults may befall the family burial ground.
