Today I went to a few local cemeteries to get fresh air and to learn. These
aren't the full data I found. Just wrote down the oldest. Those are the
hardest to find. I hope this helps someone.
Just wanted to share a little info.
Good searching.

2.) Salem Cemetery 190 W 1000 S Southeast Corner, Putnam County, Indiana
. Salem Cemetery, until recently had been very neglected. I had gone back to
see if anything had been done about restoration, etc., They have tried, but
in the years of neglect, much has been lost. I am including all the
information I could read. So many of the markers have been completely
destroyed and with stones missing, it is hard to decipher some of the
relationships.

3.) Cataract Cemetery is located near Cataract Falls State Park, Owen
County, Indiana. It is a pioneer cemetery, located high on a hill in a wooded
area. It is, in fact in the front yard of a summer cabin. Almost completely
lost all markers. What remains was saved in 1986. Near the drive, there is a
small metal marker which reads;
T. C. JENNINGS bought 1000 acres in 1841 and built a mill at the upper falls
in 1845.
ANCESTORS OF G. C. GLIDEWELL.
I am assuming at one time there may have been Glidewells buried there also.
