  Burial Notes:

Find A Grave Memorial 89706833

This is a complete transcription of Bethany Moravian Cemetery. The stones were in very poor condition and very hard to read. There was a sign there that said: "Former site of Bethany Moravian Church 1867-1979. The Bethany Congregation was organized in 1867 by 14 members including the first Pastor Heinrich Reusswig. Worship was held in a school-house until a church was built in 1872. A new church was built on this site in 1903. It was razed in 1979, three years after the congregation merged with Hebron to form Our Saviors Moravian Church."
