Baker Cemetery, Sheffield Township, Tippecanoe County, Indiana
When I went to this cemetery on September 1, 2001, efforts were being made to clean and repair some of the stones. There were areas where stones had clearly been removed from under a significant amount of dirt. I'm not sure who is responsible for this but whoever it is, thank you- it's looks great!
