Hello!
Some of you may be aware of the "saga" I have been going through for the
past like 6 years (seems longer than that!) for the Akey/Supler (United
Brethren in Christ) Cemetery where the remains of our Henry Bolen still
rest. (Trying to reason with the owners to search out the cemtery, trying
to buy it, trying to help the township get it, trying to help the township
once they got permission to place a SMALL monument in a SMALL area in the
very corner AWAY from the cemetery grounds, etc.) At any rate, at long
last, friends of ours were able to purchase the ground including the
cemetery and, in keeping a promise they made to me if they ever got
possession, I have been granted permission to "search" out the cemetery.
Having worked on several cemetery restoration projects in different
counties in Ohio, we are VERY excited about this prospect! The current
owners want to farm the surrounding land but are VERY interested in
maintaining the integrity of the cemetery!
So, as we begin our "search" on the cemetery, I would greatly appreciate
the forwarding to me of any information (not matter how small) that you
may have relating to the cemetery....I and another lady in the township
had worked to gather info for the township when they were trying to get
possession of it and I will have that complete file but I am working to
make sure that I have any and all information possible as we work on this
project.
During the upcoming work time, we will keep everyone updated and if you
live in the area or will be visiting the area and want to help, please
contact me and we will work it out!!!!!!

THANKS & I hope you are all as excited about this as I am!!!!!!!
