Shumaker family cemetery project
2003-2007
Shumaker cemetery is located in Wea township on County Rd. 800 South & 450 East
on the north east side of the intersection behind the white
barns. Our project goal
will be to resemble these stones that have been removed from their locations and to restore it to the best of
our abilities.
Support from the new owner and trustee have given us this wonderful opportunity.
We thank them both and all the great volunteers that
contribute their time and labor who will help
us put back our pioneer history and make it available for future generations. A
special thank you
to the local
Order of the Arrow troop for all the continued support on this pile of
history. I can't thank you enough! For further questions
on this
project email L.A. Clugh 
June 2003. The stones
are somewhere in this trash pile that was stacked years ago.

With a little help
from our local Boy Scouts we have found several
the first workday.
Thank you everyone you were really great help!
AUGUST 23, 2003
Our second workday we found
several more family stones. What a great
crew. Thank you all for
your help, YOU WERE ALL WONDERFUL!
20 family names have been found so far. And a few new
hints of other pioneers that we didn't know about. We
sure
have our work cut out on this one.
