Tombstone Tuesday - Riverside Cemetery, Owen County, Indiana

 Truly enjoyed my visit to this old, historic cemetery in Spencer, Owen County, Indiana.


One of the things that fascinated me was the Veteran's Memorial Pavilion that contains Civil War Cannons and was dedicated by the Women's Relief Corp.



The enclosed frame hold the American's Creed protected by glass.  This was rededicated by the VFW in 1985.







Looks as if the GAR post was the Gettysburg Post.  Always enjoy seeing these kind of memorials in cemeteries.

This was my first visit to the cemetery, was there with the SAR for a Patriot grave marking.
