The Beers and Cornen families have nearby monuments.
Many names are on each monument, but the biggest and most ornate memorial on the Beers monument is for a boy who died at six years old in 1864.
The biggest memorial on the Cornen monument is for a seventeen year old girl who died in 1865.

Cemeteries are fascinating places for the stories they tell. They are often tragedies of young lives cut short for various reasons.
