SHAKERS The large SHAKER monument (1805-1920 ) is in the center of a large grassy plot. Lebanon Cemetery records (coordinated with other sources) document that at least sixteen Shakers are buried in Section C, Lots 99, 100, 147 and 148, although portions of 147 and 148 were owned by someone other than the Shakers. |

It was not the practice of the Union Village Shakers to put gravestones on individual graves, instead they often planted cedar trees to mark the spot a person was buried. The single evergreen bush seen in this photograph may have been planted with that in mind. | by Katherine Lollar Rowland 27 July 2004 |

Sec C Lot 147 |
Well hidden by the low limbs of the evergreen bush is the only single gravestone on the Shaker Lot: that of James H. Fennessey (1853-1928) the last Union Village Shaker in Warren County. [click here to see obituary] |
