The cemetery was laid out in 1763 by George Clauss, father-in-law of Elizabeth Clewell, daughter of George. Oddly enough, he was the first to be interred in the cemetery. Further, those buried in the "old" section of the cemetery, were interred according to the Moravian "choir" system. Men were buried in one area and women were buried in another. Yes, that means a husband was not buried beside his wife. It was the same manner in which they worshipped, men on one side of the church and women on the other, a tradition no longer practiced.
