"In the early 1870's John Liegen Masterson came to Cedarville from Iowa, the state of his birth. About this time his Mother, Elizabeth VanDel Masterson, having lost her husband, came to Cedarville and lived with her son, John. She died in 1873 at the age of 73, and was buried in the northeast (oldest) section of the Cedarville Cemetery. John Leigen Masterson's second wife was sixteen-years old Louella Dean, a niece of General Wm. T. Sherman, and it was she who came with him and his eldest son, Thomas Vandal to Cedarville. The family left the area about 1880 (according to records in this write's possession, Mr. Masterson sold his land here in 1878)
