Notes 
Individual:
The following information was originally published in "Family Branches" Vol 2, No. 4, Sep. 1996.

ODD FELLOWS CEMETERY NOBLE TWP
The I.O.O.F. Cemetery is located just north of the office in Falls Cemetery. Although thought by many to be part of Falls Cemetery it is a distinct section. Through the generosity of Rose Zimmerman it is now maintained by the Wabash Cemetery Society. The following records were obtained from the stones and checked by members of the Wabash Middle School History Club with existing obituaries and funeral home records. Ten stones were in such condition that they could not be read and therefore are not included. Most of the entries found here are not in the Falls Cemetery Records prepared by the Fort Wayne Public Library.
