In Response To: Re: Otto-Newmann Cemetary (Melissa)

John and Hannah Newmann owned the 40 acres on which is the Oto Cemetery today. Hannah gave 2 acres off the northeast corner of her farm for a cemetery. Her wish was that all the people who had come from Pommerania, Germany should be buried there. Her husband, John, was buried there and the second person to be buried there was her close friend, Sophia Hillman (my great great-grandmother) who died May 5, 1887. My grandfather's first wife, Anna Hartleben,is probably buried in this same cemetery. I would be most interested in knowing if this is the case.
