Parker Cemetery, Harlan Twp. Chapter 23. This cemetery was probably started as a family cemetery and then the community cemetery. The land was deeded to the trustees of Harlan Township and the deeds were recorded January 09, 1897. On August 21, 1896, Rebecca Parker, widow of Franklin Parker deeded land to be used as a cemetery.
