I have a few photos from Wheelers Grove Cemetery that I took a few years ago.
Unfortunately no Borums. The cemetery is located on 25 just north of the county line
between Tippecanoe and Montgomery County. It's on a hill and very easy to see (because
there is almost nothing else out there, or at least there wasn't last I was out
there). The area near there has been referred to over the years as Shawnee and there is a
landmark near there called Shawnee Mound (once believed to be a Native American burial
ground but I think it's been decided it's just a geographical oddity). I don't
know of any churches out there but that doesn't mean there aren't any. To find out
more about that you might try the library in Crawfordsville. I think they have a lot of
Quaker info and the family who inhabited most of the Shawnee area was the Meharry family,
who were very prominent in Montgomery County history.
