Doom

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.
