• Notes

  North of the village of Bridgeport, on the corner of two adjoining farms, lie, the bodies of cholera victims. Mr. Wilfred Roedding of Bridgeport in 1966, can remember seeing at least 2 large crosses and 4 or 5 small crosses. The people buried here are: Mrs. Isaac Woolner (Sara Hembling) born Jul 11 1797 died July 8, 1832. One Woolner child June 29, 1832, Noah Hembling (brother of Sarah), Noah Hembling's wife Hannah, their daughter Mary Hembling 1825-1832. These people are buried in the corner lots ot two farms, the Dilman Moyer farm and the farm of John Brubacher, later Roedding and 1965 Angus Snyder farmer, now sold for development and the property of the present Brubaker farm. The house of the Dilman Moyer was across the road, and the barn where the Oswald Mink Farm is. Mr. Wilfred Roedding remembers (1966) seeing wooden crosses in 1905, and the date on the crosses was nearly faded, but could make out he the date of 1832. Dilman Moyer sold the farm to Pomeroy, J. B. In 1906 and moved Disbury, Alberta. He remembers 2 larges crosses and possibly 4 or 5 small crosses. The mounds of the graves could still be seen in -1940 and possibly there are still a few mounds today (1966) Bridgeport, Idessa Zimmerman
