Veteran Graves Joel Martin (stone broken
in several places) and Jos. Maxwell located in cattle pasture.
In August
of 1960 there was a terrible storm destroying the two trees in the small
portion of the pasture that is the cemetery. One tree knocked the tombstone
of Joel Martin down and it can no longer be found. Mr. Poetker walked over
to the field and confirmed that Joel Martin's grave was where there is now
only a stub of a five inch government tombstone and showed us a hole beside
the fence where many tombstones had been used by the men cleaning up the
storm damage to fill up the hole.
