About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Located above 6th Street and behind the Reorganized Church of the Latter Day Saints.

A census was taken in July 1961 showing the 5 Chess & Wickerham burials

There is a center monument with names and dates that was erected by Mary Wickerham Chess Miller. A high wall surrounds the area. Inside the wall are sunken holes and overturned grave markers. The Chess Family had a large farm which is now the third ward of Monongahela. Their home was located where the city park now is located. Chess St. in Monongahela was named for this family.
