Hidden away from frequent travelers is Frontier Cemetery where 161 people find their final resting spot. The oldest grave on record is that of Harriet Knowles (1887) and nine years later her father, Captain Albion K. Parrish Knowles. Captain Knowles was one of the first to enlist in Co. C, 2nd Maine Regt. Inft., Col. C. D. Jameson, which was the first regiment to leave the state of Maine to fight in the Civil War. He served with his regiment in the First Bull Run fight. At the battle of White House Landing he was left on the field for dead, but was finally picked up and taken to the hospital from which he was discharged in June, 1862, and returned to his family, who had supposed he was killed. Regaining his health he again re-enlisted. Much later, he made his way to Minnesota, probably to follow his early work of "laying the track on the York & Erie railroad" or his interest in farming or logging. His full obituary can be read online. This cemetery was affected by the installation of the dam with rising waters even disturbing some of the headstones. It was decided it was necessary to establish a new cemetery east of Pillager called Wildwood Cemetery.
