Amity Cemetery, Apache Co, Arizona |
|
The following cemetery information was extracted by Edith
Ray, August 2001.
|
|
The Amity Cemetery is located about three miles west of the
present Eagar Town Hall. When this area was first settled, it
was called Amity. The cemetery started as a family cemetery
on homestead land that was deeded to Simeon Noble Ray on
April 9, 1892 by Benjamin Harrison. The cemetery is now
landlocked on the 26 Bar Ranch which is presently owned by
the Hopi Nation. We do not have access to the cemetery.
|
|
In the recent past, it has been improved and maintained as
Eagle Scout Projects. A fence was built around it. A gate was
put up with all names of people buried there recorded. The
fence and gate is need of repair. The graves are weed
covered. Most graves are weathered and illegible.
|
|
These records are from family records and the records of
Amity which are housed in the Eagar Town Hall.
