Just a short explanation of who we are. I, of course, am the secretary/treasurer for the cemetery. I have only been in this position for just under 2 years. Our cemetery, for the most part, is considered a "Pioneer" cemetery. Since taking over the volunteer position, I have learned a lot, although there have been some mistakes on my part, but I am working hard to make sure everything is as accurate as I can make it. It has definitely been a lot more work to it than I thought, but I am quite passionate about our cemetery. I have been going through old records trying to find old lot numbers and trying to match up the earlier people buried in the cemetery to the later and now, people. We solely rely on lot sales and donations to keep our cemetery cared for, which includes upkeep of the grounds, graves, and especially the headstones. I have started to personally clean some of the old ones, and this will definitely take a lot of elbow grease, but will be very worth it. So, I guess for anyone who is interested in repairing/cleaning headstones, and doing ground maintenance to ensure our ancestors, whether we even know anyone in the cemetery or not, are regarded with great respect. I will possibly, as time allows, upload some of the names of the older names. Please feel free to contact me. Jeanie Smith
