This is a revisit of a cache, which was in the Faded Markers Series. It is a nice cemetery and thought it needed to be "reborn". This series will mainly focus on older, near forgotten burial plots of pioneers in the Niagara Region and beyond. The goal of this series is not necessarily the length of the walk nor the difficulty of the find, but rather a simple reverence for those who came before us to shape our area.
Captain Henry Buchner settled this area in 1778. A Methodist Church was founded on the adjacent property in 1808 on land donated by Peter Buchner. The old Methodist Church has since been repurposed into a private residence which is the house just to the west of the cemetery. The City acquired ownership in 1973. The first known burial is that of Joanna Buchner (1820), wife of Henry Buchner. She passed on April 3rd, 1820 at 55 years of age. Have fun and happy caching!
