Lost Cemetery Restored in Oxford Mills by Scouts
Oxford Junction woman and Boy Scout Troop 3 revived a long neglected graveyard along the Wapsie near Oxford Mills. The site holds 35 graves dating 1834 to 1863 with many young burials. Scouts cleared undergrowth, reset markers, and plan ongoing restoration with local trustees funding a surrounding fence.
