STUBBLEFIELD (SALING) CEMETERY
West side of Foster Road between Russell Creek and Reser Roads
The Stubblefield Cemetery
property was deeded by homesteader John Saling to the Saling Cemetery Association on
January 1, 1870. The first known burial was in 1863, and the last known burial
was in 1920. In his 1902 will, prominent
area farmer Joseph Stubblefield left a bequest to the trustees of the cemetery as well as a provision for a Stubblefield monument there. The Stubblefield monument is the largest and
most prominent marker in the cemetery.
