| Joseph Huffman -- his wife Sarah Birkheimer Huffman |
Joseph and Sarah share a tombstone. The stone above is one stone. Joseph's name is on the south side of the stone and Sarah's name is on the north side. Sarah Birkheimer Obituary reads: Mrs. Sarah Huffman, aged eighty-four years, eight months and twenty days, died at the residence of her son, Joe Huffman. October eighth. Her body was laid to rest in St. Paul Cemeter. (Cemeter is the way it appears in the obit. Many of their children are nearby. |
| John C. Huffman -- his wife Sarah Border Huffman |
| Joel L. Huffman--his wife Ann Eliza McCurdy Their tombstone reads God's Way God’s way is the best way, though I may not see Why sorrows and trials oft gather ’round me; He ever is seeking my gold to refine, So humbly I trust Him, my Savior divine. Refrain: God’s way is the best way, God’s way is the right way, I’ll trust in Him alway, He knoweth the best. God’s way is the best way, my path He has planned, I’ll trust in Him alway while holding His hand; In shadows or sunshine He ever is near, With Him for my refuge, I never need fear. God’s way shall be my way, He knoweth the best; And leaning upon Him, sweet, sweet is my rest, No harm can befall me, safe, safe shall I be, I’ll cling to Him ever, so precious is He. Can be played above. |

| There are many Birkheimer stones and many Shick Stones. The Huffman and Shick stones were together in the North West Corner of the cemetery. Joseph and Sarah Huffman seemed to be the center of the stones. John C. Huffman, William and Mitchell were directly behind them. In front of them were the four Shick stones. Stones I did not photograph or include on this page as they were hard to read. The Birkheimer stones were in a section across a road and to the east. Their location can be seen in the picture of Joel Huffman's stone |
| Lawrence Shick's stone reads Lawrence Shick Died Dec. 24, 1845 Aged 83 years. 2 mo. and 22 days Remember all as you pass by, As you are now so once was I. As I am now so you must be; Prepare for death all follow me. |
| Susan Shick daughter of Samuel and Rebecca Shick |
