Other Information
This cemetery was a pioneer
cemetery. The Doom family was one of first settlers in Eastern
Cass County Nebraska. When I visited the cemetery on April 2 2002,
I walked up with the property owner to see the cemetery. What I
saw was three headstones that were laying on the ground with one
headstone broken into 3 to 4 pieces. The owner does not really
take care of it. It is ashamed since this family were one of the
first pioneer families in Cass County.
