Stillwell Cemetery
T24, R13, S2
No evidence remains
There is no obvious sign remaining of the Stillwell Cemetery. There were
perhaps four graves dating from  the  Civil  War  to  the  turn  of  the
century. The name of the cemetery comes from the family who lived  close
by. There are Stillwells buried there, among others. Early settlers here
with this surname included John and Martha Stillwell.

Information on the cemetery was obtained from local long-time rersidents
and from visits to the area.

Several years ago, a man bought the place and moved there,  He  took  up
the grave stones, both fieldstones and cut monuments, and used  them  as
fill and in a retaining wall. The cut stones were buried in a ditch that
at one time contained the roadway leading to the low water bridge across
the Bryant. The remains of the old bridge can still be seen.

The place where the Stillwells lived,  the  old  Bell  school,  and  the
cemetery location are now owned by Bill LeRoy who  lives  several  miles
east.
