Hi Helen,
That's good news for those cemeteries.
Otto and Jacob Enk, Dennis Nail from Community Corrections and his wife and son, and I
made the trip up to Cunningham Cemetery late yesterday afternoon. We followed the old
road that wound around the hill to the top, where we located numerous fenced areas and
found broken and fallen tombstones over a wide area.
Dennis will bring his crew in to clear the road and make it usable for taking up a truck
and work crew. He can start work next month, whenever the ground is hard. He figures it
will take the equivalent of 3 weeks of solid effort to clear brush, remove saplings, and
consider if some of the large trees need to come out. The crews will leave tombstones or
fragments where they lay. Brush will either be moved to a part of the 4 acres that
appears to have no burials or removed to the city recycle area for people to use larger
pieces for firewood.

Hello everyone. I wanted to let you know that restoration
of Nutter
Cemetery in Washington Twp started this week. I will be
there for
Thursday, and then all of next week. This will be a multi
year project.
It is funded by the township trustee John Neal. If you
have any questions
or comments, please let me know.
McNabb Harrah was completed in 2006 in Baker Twp, and Wilson
cemetery in
Washington Twp was also finished this year.
Thanks,
Helen Wildermuth
