Eaton-Kough Cemetery
Harris, Anderson County, Kansas, USA
Isaac Eaton, a Freewill Baptist minister from Pennsylvania and his wife Philinda arrived in Reeder Township, Anderson County in 1857. In 1860, two of their sons, David S. Eaton and James R. Eaton purchased Military Bounty Lands in section 6, township 20 south, range 18 east. An area for a small cemetery was set aside by David S. Eaton in his southwest quarter. Twenty years later, in 1880, Edward and Elizabeth Kough and their family settled here. Elizabeth Kough purchased - in her own right - David S. Eaton's 160 acres. The Kough family lived here for more than 30 years, until the deaths of Elizabeth in 1906 and Edward in 1912. Today, the cemetery is marked by a small grove of trees and no visible grave markers. A 1995 cemetery survey lists only 4 known burials.
