Overview
Western Heights Cemetery, initially known as Troth, features burials dating back to the 1850s, though the cemetery was formally dedicated in 1881. In 1881, Z.E. Coombes and W.R. Fisher set aside land for a “graveyard forever.” Notable pioneers interred here include W.R. Fisher, Z.E. Coombes, John and Bosina Loupout, Mary Ellen Cole Tuggle, and Heinrich and Anna Struck. The cemetery is also the final resting place for veterans of the Civil War and both World Wars I and II, as well as Clyde and Buck Barrow.
