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.

Exact location is unknown for now. Description by "Homer and its Pioneers Book" and "Genealogy Trails History Group" "Mr. Barney once owned all the land from where he built his stone house to the lake and in 1835 he set off about two acres north of the lake and west of the village as a sepulcher for the dead. The following year in August the death of Wm. Powers occurred and his remains were the first interred therein. The D. T. & M. track now crosses this land and there is no evidence that it was ever sacred ground. George Cleveland, who came to Homer 72 years ago last winter, then a small boy, is the only person I have found who remembers the few monuments and marble slabs which marked the resting places of the pioneers who were laid to rest therein. "

The map location is approximate, based on the location of train tracks north of Homer Lake and west of Homer shown on 1916 Calhoun County map.
