The first person buried in the cemetery at Black
was a Chapman baby who died in 1889.
The
family was traveling through the country,
some say in a wagon train. The child became ill, and they camped there for a few days. When the child died,
the weather was so severe that J.H. Olds and John Nichols, father of Walter, Claude, and Grover, made a coffin from a plank from the Nichol's barn.
All the graves were marked with native stone.
This Cemetery has been plowed under and no longer exists. The Black School was also located here.
