Phil Delta County's First Cemetery for Whites Is Historic Landmark Six tombstones, most of which either chipped or broken but still bear the usual simple inscriptions, and three picket fences that stood around the graves are about all that remain of the old Flat Rock cemetery in Pioneer Trail park.

The stone monuments are being destroyed by vandals while the wooden fences are crumbling away, unable much longer to withstand the attack of the elements. It probably will not be long before all trace of the first burial place of the white men in Delta county will have been obliterated. The old abundant historical significance. It was on the top of the little hill, about three hundred yards east of the Escanaba river bank, where employees of the county's first lumbercompany were laid to rest. Pioneer settlers of Escanaba were also buried there, but most of bodies were removed when a cemeItery was platted in the early seventies near where Fire Station 2 now stands.

Funeral trains were run over the Chicago North Western railway tracks from Escanala to Larch, from the caskets were carried the distance to where, the old graveyard. Tombstone Dated 1857 Most of the headstones have been moved from their original locations. One large stone has been rolled down the east side of hill. and now it reposes in the ditch next to the railway tracks. The oldest marker is that which was McMonagle, placed over the of J.

years operated a brick-making plant at the Tannery location, was also buried there. She died August 12, 1871, years old. Mrs. Carrie R. Langley, wife of David Langley, for many years a superintendent at the Flat Rock mill, was about 30 years old when she died on August 12, 1859.

Langley was a prominent figure in Delta county in the early days. Langley street in Escanaba was named for him. He was a native of New Hampshire and was born on July 9, 1821. Langley lived in Maine for a few years, and came to the upper peninsula in the spring of 1846 in company with Isaac Stephenson and secured employment at the Flat Rock mill. May Be First Mill As the history of the old cemetery dates back to the beginning of logging operations in this county, the story would not be plete without some mention of the first sawmill.

A few years ago, the Escanaba Kiwanis club decided to place a tablet on the site of the mill with the inscription that it was the first in the upper peninsula. Announcement of the plans resulted in the presentation of claims that the first sawmill was erected on the Menominee river, near the present site of the city of Menominee. It was claimed that Farnsworth and Brush, two Wisconsin lumbermen, started a mill on the Michigan side of the Menomineo river in 1832, which is the same year in which the first lumber was sawed in the Saginaw river valley in Low. er Michigan. State historians have made conficting statements with regard the establishment of the first Flat Rock mill, some stating that it was in 1841 while others present proof to show a small water-power plant was in operation at least three years previously.

Mill There in 1838 A history of the upper peninsula, published in 1883, credits Louts A. Roberts, Indian trader who came to Flat Rock in 1838 from the Fort Howard trading post, as saying that a small mill was operation upon his arrival. It was situated on a small island in the river, just above the site of the Escanaba Paper company's plant. Fragments of the old dam were found when the paper mill was built. The names of the owners of this first mill were not recorded in history.

About 1842, this mill passed into the hands of John and Joseph Smith. who operated it until 1844 they erected a second sawmill down the river at the site of the No. 1 power dam. This mill was later acquired by the N. Ludington company, which eventually became absorbed by the I.

Stephenson company of Wells and Marinette. Apparently the first mill kept several years after the Smith Brothers started the second mill. In the field notes of John Burt, U. S. surveyor, who was engaged on the government survey of this territory in 1845, mention is made of a new mill owned the Smiths, while one and a half miles up the river was another mill, owned by Billings and Richards.

The Smith brothers disposed of their new mill in 1846 to Jefferson Sinclair and Daniel Wells of Milwaukee, who operated it until 1851 when the N. Ludington company was formed by Nelson Ludington. Harrison Ludington and Sinclair. In those days, boats came up the Escanaba river to the mill to take cargoes of lumber to Milwaukee and Chicago. Tramways were built along the east bank of the river for the piling of lumber and loading it from there on boats.

When the Chicago North Western railway bridge was built across the river, became necessary to run bottom scows from the river's mouth to the mill. The Flat Rock mill was abandoned in the nineties when a third sawmill was built on the island at the mouth of the river in the location, known at the present time as Wells. A halt dozen buildings. which still remain on the west bank of the river at the No. dam, were built by the N.

Ludington company. The old company store is located at the turn in the road. and near it is barn which sheltered horses that worked around the mill. A few dwelling houses, still occupied, are the other landmarks of the once bustling sawmill town. Louis Denies He Had More Than Pint of Liquor Louis J.

Flemal of Cornell is a stickler for accuracy, Recently, the sheriff's department raided Flemal's place, and the Escanaba Daily Press stated in its columns that a quart and a halt of moonshine whisky was seized. But Louis insists only a pint of booze was found, and writes the following letter to the editor: "Enclosed I am sending you from your September 24 clipping, which is partly untrue. "I was nabbed all right but only had about a pint of moonshine in a quart bottle in my possession.
