Jefferson County Indiana Buchanan Cemetery Jefferson County, Shelby Twp., IN By Jackie Owen jeowen1@email.msn.com I visited this cemetery Sept. 5, 2000 This cemetery may actually be in Ripley County, Brown Twp. It depends on how you look at it. As you go north on Barbersville Rd. from Canaan you will cross the sign for the Ripley County line, but you come to Buchanan Cemetery before you reach the road that marks the Ripley/Jefferson County lines. The name marked with an * is a name that was on the DAR list of 1941, but when I visited the cemetery I couldn't find the stone. Names marked with ** are stones that were moved from McLaughlin Cemetery sometime between 1972 and 1984. McLaughlin Cemetery was southwest of the Buchanan Cemetery. Names marked with *** are stones that were moved from Buchanan "Family Plot" which was located southwest of the Buchanan Cemetery. These stones were also moved sometime between 1972 and 1984. There were about 30 stones that were unreadable, some were probably footstones. Name Birth Death Other Info.

This Cemetery was surveyed in August 2000 by Jackie Owen jeowen1@msn.com SS=same stone D=daughter S=son *** Jefferson Church Cemetery Shelby Twp. Sec. 9 Twp. 5N Range 11E. The Jefferson Presbyterian Church was organized by Orin Fowler, a missionary from Connecticut on Oct. 16, 1818. It was originally known as the Bethel Church, and also as the Ryker meeting house. Land for the church, 1 acre 3 rods and 38 1/4 poles in Section 9 Twp. 5N Range 11E was deeded by Jacob Ryker to Samuel Ryker, William B. Benefiel and John Weatherford, trustees of the Bethel meeting house, on July 1, 1828 (Jefferson Co. Deed Book E p. 316.) The Church drew the bulk of its original members coming from the so-called Low Dutch community. When the Pleasant Presbyterian Church was formed in 1828, most of the Low Dutch (Demarees, Vorises, Vanosdols, etc) joined that body, leaving the Scotch-Irish as the dominant group. This is an active cemetery, although not many burials have taken place in the second half of the 20th century. The latest death date on the DAR transcriptions is 1940, but there are few burials in the 1930's. Name Date of Date of Other Info. Birth Death ?, Wm T.

This graveyard is located off of Halls Ridge Road, South of Canaan. If you turn south on Halls Ridge off of Hwy. 62, when you get to the first curve the graveyard is just about 1/4 of a mile south west in a grove of trees. Survey completed by Jackie Owen jeowen1@email.msn.com August 22, 2000 I completed this survey using the DAR list of 1941. I found a few mistakes which have been corrected. SS = Same stone *I didn't find this stone but it was on the DAR list of 1941. **This name was not on the DAR list, but was added when I found it during the survey. At the bottom of the DAR list of 1941 was this note: Census of 1880; Jesse Lott, died, age 78 yrs. widower, born KY. Both parents born KY. Had lived here 66 yrs. There are 20+ field stones here that are unreadable. Name Date of Date of Other info. Birth Death Gared, Martha Capin May 1, * 181?

Scott's Ridge Road On the property of Chales Hart By Jackie Owen jeowen1@msn.com I visited this graveyard in April 2000 Name Birth Death Other Info. Matthews, Rebecca I. Dec. 3, 1872 Wife of E. Age 22 yrs. Skeen, James R, March 18, 1815 Feb. 23,1893 Skeen, Sarah F. March 9, 1819 Dec. 3, 1896 On the back of the stone for James and Sarah was this inscription. Family Record. James R. Skeen & Sarah Fallis were married in Vevay, IN by Rev. Wm Northcote, June 20, 1839 There were also these names & dates but it is thought to be a memorial site, and that these people aren't actually buried here. Name Birth Death Other Info. Skeen, Izellar Feb. 16, 1847 May 5, 1887 Skeen, Martha A. March 25, 1840 Feb. 24, 1850 Skeen, Mary J. Sept. 4, 1841 Skeen, Rebecca V. May 20, 1850 Dec. 3, 1874 Skeen, Sallie J. Jan. 30, 1857 Feb. 5, 1861 Skeen, Samuel F. March 12, 1844 FYI: I checked and rechecked both Rebecacas names and dates. I thought maybe I had misread Rebecca Matthews' stone because her death date was so close to Rebecca Skeen's. I thought maybe Rebecca Skeen & Rebecca Matthews were the same person. All the names listed were on just one stone, except for Rebecca Matthews her stone was in poor shape and hard to read, (the other one was in great shape and easy to read) but I think I have all the info correct according to the stones. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- USGENWEB NOTICE: These electronic pages may NOT be reproduced in any format for profit or presentation by other organization or persons.
