More than twenty members and guests enjoyed great weather for a Cemetery tour.
This year, the Salem Chapel Cemetery, south and east of La Porte on Indiana Hiway 4
was selected. A pamphlet listed early
burials and veterans buried there. Fern Eddy Schultz spoke about the
history of the cemetery and Salem Chapel United Methodist Church. Members and
guests told stories of other families.
Next month the Society will return to the usual meeting
place, at 7 PM, in the headquarters of the La Porte City Park Department, 250
Pine Lake Avenue. The business meeting will be followed by "The Sons of
the American Revolution", presented by Doug McGriff, Chaplain of the
Duneland chapter of the Indiana Society of the American revolution. Guests are
always welcome.
