History: A large area is mowed along the south side of the road, with lovely flowers. A large red boulder (4x6 foot) has a bronze plate (14x20 inches) on the west side of the boulder: Campbell Memorial Garden.
A 1915 History reports that Allen Scott, an early settler in Hamilton Township, lived in Section 19. A wife and daughter, whom he had deserted in Indiana, visited him. They were frozen to death in a snowstorm after leaving his store and were buried in the orchard of what later was known as the Duncan Campbell farm.
Himena Hoffman's book reported that Allen Scott buried a little daughter who died of burns, near her grandfather and baby brother's graves near their home. At one time there were tombstones (names unknown) marking graves in this area.
