Geocache Description:

This is an easy park and grab I just wated to bring people to this site.


Old Wyoming Cemetery

 

This cemetery is located in a farm field on private property, 0.75 mile to the south and 0.3 mile to the east of the intersection of 60th and 'A' roads.  The cemetery no longer exists.  All grave stones have either been removed, or have deteriorated.

 

A marker and plaque commemorating the Old Wyoming Cemetery stands 1.25 miles south of the intersection of 60th and 'A' roads, on the east side of the road.  It is 0.6 mile southwest of actual location of the original cemetery.  The cemetery has long been plowed over by years of farming throughout the area.  This marker and plaque was erected by the descendants of some of the original Mormon settlers who passed through this site as a testament to the courage and faith of their ancestors.

 

The plaque, made up of fragments of the remaining gravestones left buried in the field surrounding the cemetery, were cemented together as a memorial to these brave settlers, and as a reminder that this cemetery once did exist, and that its legacy should never be forgotten.
