These photos are a combination of several trips I have made over the last ten years to document the Harlan - Allen - Davis and related families. I want to thank Evelyn A. Davis for showing me this cemetery and the beautiful countryside where the cemetery is located.

Ken Kothe contributed a file of the inscriptions of the stones to the USGenWeb Archives in September 1997.
Visit the Butler County, IAGenWeb page.

Any questions or comments, you can email me.


The Harlan Cemetery Association was not organized until October 6,1894, by George Schuler, Levi Read, James Evans who was the first president, William Jamison secretary, Theodore Ahrens treasurer, and James Harlan sexton. The annual Memorial service brings old settlers to reminisce and a strong feeling of community spirit is manifested at these gatherings. Harlan Cemetery can be found in Section 19 of Pittsford Twp, one mile north and two miles west of the town of Dumont.[info from the USGenWeb Archive]
