This Month’s Fun Fact
Why was the Howard Cemetery located where it is?
Elija Foster Stout died during the winter of 1874 and was the first person to be buried in what is now known as the Howard Cemetery (formerly public land). The family needed a spot where the ground was easier to dig, no worry about flooding, and closer to where they homesteaded.
