Sipe Cemetery
You left me.
"Abandoned cemetery located 5 miles east then 3.5 miles south of Monroe on the Lester Sipe farm back in a field.
Or five miles east then 2.5 miles north of Berne, in Blue Creek Township.
All stones lying on the ground, in a clump of trees. It is possible there were more people buried here as there are fragments of stones scattered about.
Copied September 22, 1959."
