After one hundred and seventy-six years, on September 21, 2019, a promise was kept when a deed was transferred in Upper Sandusky, Wyandot County, Ohio

Indeed one of the most prominent news stories of this past week taking place in Ohio might have also been the oldest in terms of its history; because it was 176 years in the making to happen.  
The reports spotlight the significance of the long awaited transfer of the deed to the Wyandotte Indian mission church and cemetery located in Upper Sandusky, Wyandot County, Ohio.  The deed was delivered by representatives of the United Methodist Church to the rightful owners -- the Wyandotte Nation of Oklahoma.

Transfer of historic deed story - "The Atlanta Journal-Constitution"
Excerpt from story.:

"The United Methodist Church on Saturday afternoon returned sacred land to the Wyandotte  Nation.

The land in Ohio has been held in trust for 176 years by the UMC’s Global Ministries, which is based in Atlanta."

"The transfer of  roughly three acres of land in Upper Sandusky, Ohio, includes a stone church built in 1824 and a cemetery."

"Wyandotte Nation reclaims 3 acres of church-held land"

My special thanks to Susan Hoffman Matthews for her kind permission to share her photo below of the Wyandotte Indian Princess who took part in the event by reciting the "Lord's Prayer" in tribal sign language.  Susan stated that several hundred people were in attendance at all of the events marking this historic moment.

Sharing news stories like this one are a true joy!  They are a welcome departure from reading almost daily reports about cemeteries in Ohio having been vandalized, or the ongoing thefts occurring in them.  These issues, and those about active cemeteries becoming orphaned through no fault of their own, seem to dominate cemetery related news articles.  Sadly, the stark realities with them need to be shared because they adversely affect many people.  

~~~~~

So it is that reading this one provides us so much proof that cemetery preservation in Ohio is definitely going strong and those involved with it are making a significant difference!  

Congratulations to everyone who has been connected with this effort and has contributed to it.
~~~~~~~~~Excerpted from this news story:
“We firmly believe this endeavor was supposed to happen!,” Mary Reinhart, a member of the committee organized to memorialize the cemetery, said in an email. “We have had so many wonderful people join in our quest and give so much time and talents to get this project to flow so well!”
