Greenwood Cemetery

Information:  It sits on the southeast corner of the 
124-year-old cemetery located at County Road 5 and Limit. 

Greenwood Cemetery was established in 1863, but a search 
of the tombstones and records completed by Johanna Baum 
in 1948 indicates one Henry A. Gooter or Cooter was buried 
there in 1852 and Jeanice Cox was buried Sept. 23, 1858. 
Mrs. Baum said the first recorded burial was July 5, 1861, 
but other information points to John Hamils, buried Nov. 6, 
1863, as the first one. A tombstone with the name Steinler 
is marked Sept. 11, 1830. It is unknown whether it is a 
birth or death date.
