Boonville  Weekly  Eagle,  31  Mar  1876    

The  frequent  allusions  to  these  grounds  in  the  papers,  and  the  slurs,  not  to  call  them  by  a  harsher  name,  thrown  out  against  the  Company,  propel  me,  as  the  only  surviving  resident  member,  to  offer  the  following  in  explanation.  

The  above  Cemetery  was  started  in  1852,  by  ten  citizens,  who  were  unwilling  to  bury  their  dead  in   the   uninviting   grounds   belong   to   the   city,  with   no   intention,   however,   of  making   it   a   public   burying  ground;;   but   when   the   people   saw   the   many   improvements,   and   the   evident   determination   of   the  managers  to  make  it  an  ornament  to  the  city,  they  insisted  upon  buying  lots,  and  the  managers,  were,  I  might  say,   foolish  enough   to  sell   them  at   first  at   the  enormous  price  of  $10  each,  and  only   raised  (not  however  without  giving  ample  notice)   to  $15  and  $25,  when   they   found   that   to  continue  at   the   former  rate  would  not  yield  them  revenue  enough  to  keep  the  grounds  in  order,  especially  when  the  many  lots  are   taken   into   consideration   which   to   this   day   remain   unpaid   for,   not   to   mention   those   which   were  presented   to  ministers,   etc.    Although   it   is   asserted   in   the  papers   that   for   no   improvements  were  ever  made   yet   the   vouchers   show   that   the   Company   expended   during   the   first   ten   years,   nearly   $2,5000,  including  $500  for  the  purchase  of  the  grounds  but  never  one  dollar  for  compensation  of  officers,  and  that  they   have   since   expended   large   amounts   for   improvements,   including   new   sections   of   fence,   three  different   attempts   to   raise   a   hedge   all   around   the   grounds,   planting   out   great   numbers   of   evergreens,  many  of  which  have  been  dug  up  and  destroyed  not  to  mention  minor  items,  besides  paying  $30  yearly  for  the  having  the  grounds  taken  care  of  -  few  people  have  an  idea  of  how  much  labor  it  requires.    Up  '67,  the   grounds   were   kept   in   such   order   that   they   were   pointed   out   with   pride   to   strangers,   and   how  ridiculous  it   is  for  anyone  to  suppose,  that  those  who  for  so  many  years  freely  and  cheerfully  gave  their  time  and  labor  to  this  enterprise  should  all  at  once  have  turned  barbarians  and  became  recreant  to  their  self-imposed   trust   by   neglecting   the  work  which   they   had   taken   so  much   satisfaction   in   creating.     The  facts  are,  that  if  the  managers  had  never  been  interfered  with,  the  grounds  would  never  have  shown  any  signs  of  neglect.    The   trouble  began,  when   in   '67,  during  my  sojourn   in  Europe   the  agricultural   society  tore   away   the   western   division   fence   and   replaced   it   by   a   high   up   and   down,   (not   very   ornamental)  concern,  which  has  defied  all  efforts  to  keep  it  in  order.    The  A.  S.  never  paying  the  slightest  attention  to  its  condition.    The  fence  would  have  long  since  been  replaced  by  a  suitable  and  substantial  one,  had  it  not  been  the  avowed  intentions  of  some  parties  to  turn  the  fair  grounds  into  a  cemetery,  thereby  making  this  division  fence  unnecessary.    The  next  trouble  came  when  the  city  authorities  needed  some  earth  to  fill  up  

Page  2  of  230  of  Walnut  Grove  Cemetery  in  Boonville  

in  front  of  the  gate,  and  in  order  to  save  a  little  hauling,  had  the  bank  of  earth  along  the  front  fence  dug  away  to  such  an  extent  as  to  expose  the  pests,  which  naturally  was  soon  followed  by  their  total  downfall.    By   leaving   it   for   a  while   in   that  deplorable   condition,   I   hoped   to   show   the   city   authorities   the  absolute  necessity   of   repairing   the   damages   by   replacing   the   bank   of   earth   so   uselessly   dug   away   and   thereby  enable  one  not  only  to  make  a  permanent  enclosure,  but  also  to  restore  the  dry  walk  along  the  fence  and  greatly  improve  the  entrance,  (the  whole  expense  being  estimated  at  $150.00)    All  efforts  in  that  direction  have  been  thus  far   in  van,  and  I  feel  compelled  to  hereby  give  notice,  that  whenever  the  present  fence  falls  down  again,  which  from  a  lack  of  sufficient  foundation  must  of  necessity  son  occur,  nothing  can  and  will  be  done,  until  the  city  repairs  the  damages  alluded  to  -  not  have  the  right  to  do  it  myself,  even  if  so  inclined  nor  can  the  fence  be  set  back,  without  encroaching  upon  graves.  

I   believe   I   am   justifiable   in   saying   that   the   Walnut   Grove   enterprise   is   the   only   one   ever  attempted   here,   which   has   been   faithfully   carried   out,   without   the   slightest   hope   for   glory   or   the  advancement  of  any  private  interest;;  and  yet  it  seems  the  originators  have  not  even  been  able  to  escape  the  charge  of  improper  motives.  

To  those  who  are  ready  to  find  fault,  a  most  excellent  opportunity  is  now  presented,  to  test  their  delights  and  cares  of  owning  a  cemetery,  by  laying  off  new  grounds,  beautifying  and  ornamenting  them,  until   the   old   are   completely   eclipsed,   and   by   renouncing   all   pecuniary   profit,   and   base   their   hopes   fro  reward  solely  and  exclusively  upon  the  expected  thanks  of  a  proverbially  grateful  public.    

C.  F.  Aehle      

Walnut  Grove  Cemetery,  one  of  the  most  beautiful  in  the  State,  had  its  inception  in  1852.  In  that  year   Charles   F.   Aehle,   Robert   D.   Perry,   Dr.   A.   Keuckelhan   and   others   purchased   a   piece   of   ground  containing  two  acres  from  William  S.  Myers  to  be  used  as  a  cemetery.  Upon  this  ground  was  a  beautiful  grove  of  walnut  trees,  hence  the  name  Walnut  Grove  Cemetery.  This  tract  has  been  added  to  from  time  to  time.  The  first  body  interred  in  the  cemetery  was  that  of  Mrs.  Sarah  Ann  Quarles,  who  died  Aug.  24,  1852.  Others  buried  about  the  same  time  were  Mrs.  H.  A.  Massie,  James  McDearmon,  and  Ida  Aehle.  Also  the  remains  of  David  Burton,  first  United  States  Senator  of  Missouri,  was  removed  from  the  City  Cemetery  and  buried  here,  where  now  stands  an  appropriate  monument  erected  by  the  State.  Up  to  1880  this  cemetery  was  under   the  care  of  Mr.  Aehle,   in  which  year   the  cemetery  was  made  public  under   certain   rules  and  restrictions  by  the  purchase  of  the  same  from  Mr.  Aehle  by  and  through  a  corporation  organized  for  that  purpose.  The  charter,  however,  was  not  issued  until  June  7,  1881.  

The  people  of  Boonville  and  Cooper  County  are  justly  proud  of  this  beautiful  cemetery  where  rest  the  remains  of  their  loved  and  lost.  It  has  grown  from  year  to  year  and  its  management  has  been  such  as  to  add  to  its  beauty  with  years.  While  not  all  but  much  of  the  credit  due  to  the  superb  management  of  this  cemetery   is  credited   to  Dr.  William  Mittlebach,  who   for  years  has  been  superintendent  and  secretary  of  the  same.  The  present  board  of  directors  are  T.  A.  Johnson,  president;;  W.  W.  Trigg,  vice-president;;  R.  W.  Whitlow,   treasurer;;  William  Mittlebach,   superintendent   and   secretary;;   Hilliard   Brewster,   Fred   G.   Lohse,  Starke  Koontz,  and  Charles  Doerrie.  The  executive  committee  consists  of  William  Mittelbach,  W.  W.  Trigg,  and  Fred  G.  Lohse.  Lawrence  Geiger,  Sr.,  is  the  present  sexton.    

From  W.  F.  Johnson's  "History  of  Cooper  County,  Missouri",  1919    

Originally,  a  two  acre  walnut  grove  on  land  owned  by  William  S.  Myers  on  the  east  edge  of  town  just  sough  of  the  Thomas  Nelson  estate  was  purchased,  and  the  cemetery  was  designed  around  the  grave  of   Missouri's   first   Senator,   David   Barton  whose   remains   were  move   in   1853   from   their   original   resting  place   in   the   old   City   Cemetery   where   he   had   been   buried   in   1837.     McVicker   believes   part   of   the  motivation  for  moving  Barton's  remains  may  have  been  related  to  the  fact  that  the  first  Missouri  State  Fair  was  scheduled  to  open  at  Boonville  on  grounds  just  to  the  north  of  the  cemetery  in  the  same  year.    Jacob  Wyan  was  also  re-interred  at  Walnut  Grove  along  with  a  number  of  others.     The  cemetery   remained  under   the   control  of   the  Aehle   family  until   1880  when   it  was   sold   to  a  corporation   formed   by   Charles   C.   Bell,   who   also   arranged   the   purchase   of   additional   acreage   and  superintended  a  re-landscaping  of  the  grounds,  replacing  many  of  the  old  and  diseased  walnut  trees  with  

Page  3  of  230  of  Walnut  Grove  Cemetery  in  Boonville  

the  cypress  trees  that  grace  the  grounds  at  present.    In  1881  the  first  official  cemetery  board  was  elected,  including   Bell,   Charles   Aehle,   John   Cosgrove,   Augustus   H.   Sauter,   George   B.   Harper,   Speed   Stephens,  Jacob  F.  Gmelich,  John  E.  Thro  and  Samuel  W.  Ravenel.    More  acreage  was  added  over  the  next  twenty  years,  and   in  1892  a  perpetual  care  was  established.     In  1901,  George  Kessler,   the   landscape  architect  who  designed  many  of  Kansas  City's  boulevards  and  the  mineral  spa  area  at  Excelsior  Springs,  as  well  as  taking   an   active   part   in   the   landscaping   of   the   1904   St.   Louis  World's   Fair,   was   hired   to   redesign   the  cemetery.    At  present  the  cemetery  includes  just  over  21  acres  and  nearly  8,000  people  are  buried  there.
