Pictures and inscriptions taken
by Pamela Smith, CCGS member, on November 29, 2006. These
graves were previously located on the Horstman Property in 1950 but
have been relocated to Olive
Branch Cemetery, Batavia Township. I have been told by eyewitnesses
that they did actually move
the graves (dirt and all) with the stones (for any concerned family
members). We are including
them as a separate cemetery but will be included in the Olive Branch
Cemetery pictures and inscriptions.
