Historycemetery

The cemetery was originally purchased by three of the early settlers of the Town, Davis Baxter, Lewis Cross and John Kerr. When the lots were put up for sale, the price was $10.00 for a block of ten burial sites. The first burial was that of Mrs. Calvin (Ida) Cross, who died on January 19, 1884. The Town of Berthoud assumed ownership of Greenlawn Cemetery in June, 1905.

 

! The Exciting Cache Series!

COLORADO SPIRIT QUEST

REMEMBER:

If you are APPREHENSIVE about cemeteries AVOID this series.

The Colorado Spirit Quest is a series of Caches placed by many individuals, near cemeteries and historic sites in hopes of paying respect to the many pioneer ancestors that have  walked before us.

If you are interested in being a part of this project, contact may be made by sending an e-mail to the owner of GC1DQC2 Colorado Spirit Quest #1 Mountain Passage .  Use the  Send Message link at the center of the page of their profile.

There are hundreds of cemeteries in the rural and mountain communities across Colorado.  This series will introduce you to many of them.

The cache pages will provide a virtual history tour of the cemeteries and tombstones.

The CSQ endeavor is an enormous and relentless task and will only flourish if there is a multitude of volunteer cachers  willing to place these caches. 

After locating the cache container, take some time to reflect back on the lives of those pioneers and the effort it took to make Colorado such a great state.

Each person that places a CSQ cache is responsible for its maintenance.
