I'm trying to find my photos from Washam Cemetery; they'll turn up.
Washam is a large cemetery by country standards yet there are only 11 known burials. However, a witching of the cemetery indicates many unmarked graves. Records for Washam cannot be found so it is difficult to say how many are buried in this cemetery west of Westfall, in Franklin township.
Land for the cemetery was deeded to the Washam Cemetery Association on 5 August 1886, but the earliest known burial there was that of Minnie M. Washam in 1879.
Mike Day, who grew up near the cemetery, has taken on the responsibility of researching its history and maintaining its grounds.
