HISTORY
In the early 1860s, settlers worked together to select the very best location to build Unity Church & Cemetery. They gathered enough money from local families to build Unity Church before building had even commenced. The Church became a thriving entity, but due to changing times, ceased to hold regular services in 1948. Still to this day, on the second Sunday of September at 2:30 pm, the pews are almost filled with people whose hearts and souls are in this property.
STORIES BEHIND THE STONES
As we stroll through Unity Cemetery, we see the monuments with names and dates. We have asked people to give us 'the stories behind the stones' so that people can share details about who these people were and what they were like. We think that you will find it interesting to know some of the highlights and details of people who are buried in Unity Cemetery.
If you have any additional stories that you would like to share with us, please email them to us at unitychurch1864@gmail.com so that we may add them.
