Visitors Gather
At OlJ Cemetery
Over Week End
By KATHERINE CHAPMAN
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Hornbrook The historic
Henley - Hornb-onk cemetery
was Ihe mecca for- countless
out-of-town visitors over the
Memorial Day weft ei.d.
Of the 248 persons who
signed the visitors' register,
the one from the farthest dis
tance was Mrs. Charles Dailey
Jr. from Hawaii, a relative of
Mrs. William "anders. Other
visitors came from points
raiiRing from Calexico, Calif.,
to Seattle, Wash.
One of the most beautiful
and well-kept cemeteries in
this part of the country, the
old burial ground, dating
back to 1854, is the final rest
ing place for members of nu
merous pioneer families of
Old Oregon Trail days, and
many of those who make an
nual Memorial Day visits here
are defendant "of those early
day families.
During Che day's activities
each year, many old friend
ships are renewed as the vis
itors mill around and talk
over the old days.
For the past few years, a
project of the Hornbrook
Grange has been the serving
of a ham dinner at the Grange
half on Memorial Day, which
has accomodated many of the
visitors spending the day
here. Some 70 dinners were
served this yegr.
Until about 20 years ago,
the local cemetery was typical
of many country cemeteries
overgrown with weeds and uncared-for,
except for a quick
clean-up of individual graves
by family members on Me
morial Day.
Through the efforts of Gor
don Jacobs, who at that time
was chairmanf the board of
Siskiyou Coui ty supervisors,
an almost infinitesimal tax as
sessment was passed which
has enabled the cemetery as
sociation to provide perma
nent care for the grounds.
