Cemetery Sign Program

The Stewart County Historical Society has a goal of placing new signs at all of the county's cemeteries, to ensure that these historical places are not lost or disrupted.
The cost for a sign and post is $45.00.
So far, 162 signs have been posted.

If you would like to 'adopt' a cemetery or make a general donation, please contact Kim Schmidt.
