Pleasant Dale (Steele) Cemetery


Now commonly known as the Pleasant Dale Cemetery, the Steele
Cemetery is located on the north side of County Road 300 North,
between roads 400 West and 500 West in Adams County Indiana. 
A large monument in the cemetery has the
inscription:
    "Record of Steele Cemetery
     Martin Coffman
     deeded to James Russell
     Wm. Brown                trustees
     Gideon Billman
     on Jan. 10, 1846
     Sec. 14, Tp. 27, Range 13.  1/2 acre
                  Samuel L Rugg, Recorder."

From the Introduction in the Pleasant Dale Cemetery Association
booklet of the Articles of Association, By-laws, and Rules and
Regulations, published in 1944: "January 10, 1846, nearly one
hundred years ago, the pioneer citizens residing in Kirkland
Township and vicinity, selected as a burial place for the departed
dead of the community, a beautiful shady plot in the forest on the
Coffman farm (known today as the Zimmerman homestead.)...  The
original one-half acre of land was purchased for a burial ground
for the sum of $2.00, deeded January 10, 1846 by Martin Coffman to
James Russel, William Brown and Gideon Billman -- Trustees of the
Steele Cemetery (Later changed to Pleasant Dale Cemetery).
Recorded in deed record C. page 287, by Samuel S. Rugg, recorder of
Adams County.  Other trustees who have served are Frank Arnold,
William Arnold, Edward Arnold, William Zimmerman, Edward Zimmerman,
Milton Zimmerman.  Present trustees -- Fred Adler, Samuel Henschen
and Oliver V. Dilling.  Secretary -- Victor Byerly.  Term of
trustees -- Three years.  Term of Secretary -- One year."

Improvements to this cemetery have been the addition of white vinyl
fencing along the east and north property lines, a new white vinyl
sign by the road, and most recently (blacktop/asphalt) paving of
the circular drive, as well as other landscaping.

The Pleasant Dale Cemetery Association holds an annual meeting and
operates under the 1944 Rules and Regulations.  Most of the record
keeping has been since this time of organization.  Each officer has
maps of the cemetery which identify ownership of each sold lot.

This extraction was taken from walking the cemetery during the
month of May 1998 and was compared with the 1957 published reading
done by the Mary Penrose Wayne, DAR Chapter from Fort Wayne,
Indiana.  Errors and discrepancies were noted in this typescript.
The use of this record was helpful in interpreting a few older worn
stones that were difficult to read in 1998.  Then, a comparison was
made with a copy of the two maps (the original older section and
the newer addition) that are the cemetery association's official
records.

Variations in this reading from most cemetery records are that a
description of the stone is include and that personal and
genealogical notes are mentioned with the gravestone inscriptions.
This is part of a larger work in progress, Pleasant Dale Cemetery
Families, which notes the interrelatedness of many of the Kirkland
Twp. families buried in this cemetery.  Apparent extraneous
material is also included in this list, so that a researcher may
gather clues for further investigation.

Some pictures of the gravestones themselves are available as
attachments to E-mail and any could be available upon request.
Contact (ThomasLiby@AOL.com) for more information.

This reading follows the order of beginning at the south east
corner (closest to the Pleasant Dale Church of the Brethren
building across the road) and reading the stones from south to
north.  Whereas the 1957 reading copies the information from the
stones starting from the first row north and then returns down row
2 reading toward the road (and basically reverses reading odd
numbered rows one direction and even numbered from the other
direction), each of the sixteen rows are started from the end
closest to the road in this extraction.

Holy Bible
Heaven and Earth shall pass away: but my words
shall not pass away.             Luke 21:33
Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a
light unto my path.            Psalm 119:105
God's word shall not return void.  Isaiah 55:11
Remember Friends as you pass by as you are
now, so once was I.  As I am now, you will
soon be.  Prepare to meet God, and Follow me.
                    Listen! I stand at the door
                    and knock; if anyone hears my
                    voice and opens the door, I
                    will come into his house and
                    eat with him, and he will eat
                    with me.       Revelation 3:20
                    But if we walk in the light,
                    as He is in the light, we have
                    Fellowship one with another,
And the blood of Jesus Christ His Son
Cleanseth us from all sin.               1 John 1-7
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy
laden, and I will give you rest.    Matthew 11:28
Whoever has the Son has this life; whoever
does not have the Son of God does not have life. 1 John 5:12
Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, no
one goes to the Father except by me."      John 14:6
Anyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will
be saved.                          Romans 10:13
Listen  Hear what God says: Today is the Day
for salvation.                  1 Corinthians 6:2
