BEACHLER CEMETERY
SECTION 34 JEFFERSON TWP
ABANDONED
|
L. Beachler Cemetery located in Sec 34 of Jefferson Twp., Buchanan Co., IA. It was the first cemetery in Jefferson Twp., and was originally 3 acres in size. As time went by the cemetery was abandoned and in March of 2004 consists of nothing more than a very small spot of unplowed land in the middle of a corn field with a tree stump in the center. There were a few pieces of broken tombstones and in 1976 when Mr. Reidy (who now owns the land) walked the cemetery site the stone of Daniel was still there. The Pioneer Cemetery Project is restoring the area, donated by Mr. Reidy, and plans are to return Daniel's stone to the site. Mr. Reidy had moved it for safe keeping. This is located on land owned by Joseph Erger (1979). The first burial was a little girl named Pella, who burned to death. Log houses lined the road going to the cemetery. |
