BANKS OF MUD RUN CEMETERY

The Banks of Mud Run Cemetery is located in Sect. 2, Twp. 2, Range 24, a few rods northeast of Boughton Cemetery, in Norwich Twp. It is noted in Williams' "History of Huron and Erie County,", p. 422: "The first death was an infant son of Wilder LAWRENCE, February 19, 1817, only nine days after their arrival in the township. It [sic] was buried on the bank of Mud Run, some twenty rods northeast of the present burying ground. Soon after, Chauncey WOODRUFF, buried a son at the same place . . . The first adult person that died in the township was Richard MOON, in the fall of 1819. Elder J. Wheeler, then a resident of Greenfield, preached the funeral sermon. This was the first burial that had been attended with religious ser­vices. The body was interred on the bank of Mud Run." Also buried here were twin babies of Mr. and Mrs. Dickinson, born and died 24 Oct 1817 - "one

714

stillborn; other lived only few hours." Rev. Norman Bowen searched the area in 1992 and 1993 for this book and believes he found a spot on a bluff well above Mud Run that juts out quite a bit, and is a likely site for this cemetery, although no stone remains were found, if these ever were there.
