Located in Section 36 on the current land of Leroy Menke. There is a long farmer's lane back to it that Mrs. Menke graciously allowed me to take. All that is left of a possible 60 stones were two stones. They were chalked and are shown below. A foot stone had disk marks on it as did the smaller of the two stones. Since no one knows for sure whom was buried there, I would presume this cemetery was damaged many years ago. There is a list of possible burials in the city library.

There is a farmer's lane all the way back, please ask owner before going back.

 

There are four stones here. Two with no writing.

Lenard F., son of A. J. and M. A. Cheney, died

 

Daughter, Elsie Huxley, died, Mar. 18, 1859, Aged 7 days.

Neither of these two stones were on the possible list.

Some Quaker names on the list were Frazier, Hiatt, Hicks, Hourihan, Jones, Mills, Phelps who married a Jay, Votaw, Ketchem, and many others.
