FRIENDSWOOD CEMETERY (QUAKER CEMETERY), Town of Woodland, Sauk County:
Shortly after Wisconsin became a state in 1848, Friends families, came from Indiana and Ohio by covered wagon. They settled up and down the Little Baraboo River in Woodland and Ironton townships. This area is still referred to as "Quaker Valley."
Friends families arriving in 1854 included Mr. & Mrs. Benjamin Pickering, Mr. & Mrs. Isaiah Frazier, Meredith & Melinda Beeson, Solomon & Mary Cook, Fielder & Martha (Bundy) Brown, and Ephraim & Elizabeth (Wissler) Bundy. Will F. Bundy, a son of Mr. & Mrs. Ephraim Bundy, was a physician, poet and learned scholar. Few of the Friends were more widely known than Jabez Brown, son of Fielder Brown, who for more than thirty years was one of the foremost school teachers of Sauk County.
By 1855 it was thought that a sufficient number of Friends had settled in the valley to maintain a Friends Meeting. Accordingly, one was organized in the home of Jabez Brown and his father Fielder Brown, who then lived in a small log house beside the creek. Thirty charter members were on the list, including four ministers. In 1856, a small Friends Meetinghouse was built of logs a short distance back of the old Oaks school house, and a Sabbath School was organized at the time. Death early claims three of the original Friends' ministers, and James Stanley, "Uncle Jimmy," remains as shepherd of the flock for more than forty years.
In 1867 the Friends had outgrown the log Meetinghouse and they erected the Friendswood building, located three and one-half miles west of Ironton. This building was 30 by 50 feet in size, with a large meeting hall, a room in the west end, and a second floor suitable for school purposes. Friendswood Academy was opened October 6, 1884, with an enrollment of 32.
According to Cole's, A Standard History of Sauk County (1918), p. 396:
"The first burials made in the little graveyard in the woods about half a mile east from Oaks Cemetery were those of Nellie Davis, mother of Neil Davis, and Elizabeth Stafford...". Elizabeth Stafford is the mother-in-law of Elizabeth Bundy, not the mother, as stated by Cole.
