Couple resurrect pioneer cemetery near St Michael site
Guttenberg resident Herb Kann and his wife Grace revived a neglected pioneer cemetery near the former St Michael's Mission. They cleared weeds, restored headstones, erected a fence and signs, and used a local “witching” skill to locate about 60 graves, now totaling 147. Grace Kann died in 1999, but Kann keeps vigil and plans to place stones for identified kin.
