EDITORIAL COMMENT:
No stones were found for any person surnamed FRY or FRYE,
but R.J. Skinner's 1862 map of Cass County shows this cemetery on the
"John Fry 80-acre Farm", and Helm's [1886] "History of Cass Co." lists
a John A. FRYE as a brother of Sam FRYE, and a son of Sam
FRYE, Sr., and mentions this Jefferson Township, as well as adjoining township of Boone. [see Helm's]
FURTHER COMMENT: The late Dr. J.Z. Powell, well known Cass
County, Indiana, Historian is authority for the statement that the
following persons lie buried in this cemetery, but though we found some
shattered fragments, and may have missed some fallen, broken, or now
missing monuments, we found no monuments for any such persons:
