During the summer, I have been doing preliminary work on an Oktoberfest Cemetery Tour. This will be similar to the St. Patrick’s Cemetery Tour wherein this time the focus will be the German immigrants who are now permanent residents of the Susanville Cemetery.

Tentatively, the graves selected are: Jacob Schmitt, Jurgen Jensen, Antone Bantley, Hans Wiencke, William Brockman, Ben Neuhaus, Daniel Cramer, John Hulsman and Andrew Miller. An interesting note descendants of all these families  still reside in Lassen County.

Currently, it is scheduled for Saturday October 1, 2016. It would truly be appreciated if those interested in attending would let me know. If there is a lack of interest, then there is no reason for me to finalize the presentation.  You can either post in the comment section or email me.

Note: For non-subscribers there is a five-dollar fee.
