Stykeman-Minsel Cemetery
Independence, Defiance County, Ohio, USA
Cemetery researched by H. & E. Rulman (year?).
"Located in section 16 on State Route 424 East, this cemetery is in very bad shape. With permission of Mrs. (Rita) Howard Shock, we crossed their ground to get to monuments. The Shocks have mowed the grounds behind their acreage. To the left of the mowed portion it was a dense patch high as a persons head. We waded in the brush as far as possible and found a few monuments. In the mowed part some monuments were piled on a stump or in a pile by side of a tree. Large areas had no stones leaving a person to think that many were missing. A number of canal workers are supposed to be buried here. Dying from small pox. This may account for no monuments."
