About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Northeast quarter section 23, Township 11 south, range 2 west

The Lamer Cemetery is in a wooded area behind the Bell house on Jamestown Road near Skyline Drive. The cemetery has not been cared for in many years and there are many sandstone markers without inscriptions.

The cemetery was also known in the early 1900's as Venerable Cemetery because James E. Venerable owned the land on which the cemetery is located and he was recorded as the owner in the 1908 atlas. Martha E Love owned the land in 1881. A Venerable infant who died 4 Jan 1911, in Alto Pass, is buried in the cemetery according to the death certificate. Fount Dillon Venerable born 8 Sep 1889, died 20 Aug 1891, according to the family Bible, is buried there. None of the Venerable family buried in the cemetery have identifiable stones.

The oldest legible marker in this cemetery is for Nancy Zimmerman Lamer who died in 1844.
