Tilden L. Buckham and his wife, Jane Hillis, came to Pleasant Grove,
Fremont County, in 1842. The oldest son Peter Buckham was born in
1845. (He later served in the Civil War.) The oldest graves in the
Buckham Cemetery go back to October of 1845 when two of Archibald H.
Argyle’s children were buried here. Mr. Argyle was one of the
county’s early distinguished residents. He owned the store at Austin
which was first used as a courthouse.
Mr.
Buckham was the first treasurer and recorder of the county being
chosen in 1849 when the county was organized. He died Jan. 1, 1876
at his farm home 1 ¾ miles northwest of the Belcher Ferry. He willed
his final resting place – lot No. 15 in his timber known as “Grave
Yard Site” to Fremont County. Recorded in county deed book M., page
596.
