- “John POWERS started the movement towards getting a cemetery at Broadland. He should be given credit for this. He gave the first money toward it and my father [C. R. FULLER] gave the second--others contributed to the fund, among them several Civil War Veterans. Then the quarter upon which it is situated, wasn’t proved up on, so there was some difficulty about getting a deed--the old soldiers took the matter all the way to Washington, and in some way they had this piece of land removed from land office rulings and designated as a cemetery.
“Grandma FULLER died at our place in February 1883--she was buried on our place. Shortly after that POWERS began agitating for a cemetery. In June 1883 the cemetery was ready to receive bodies. Harlow BEEBE’s daughter, Clara, twelve years old, was probably the first one buried there. …Late that fall we moved Grandma’s body to this cemetery.”
