Law Cemetery Photos & History

Back to Pioneer/Historic Cemeteries

The Law Cemetery contains one monument within a small fenced plot on the farm that William Law purchased in April 1837 from his father-in-law, James Hill. To quote from the sales document, “…the five acres is a burial ground which has been for some time and now is fenced in”. No other grave markers, if any, have survived.
