Updated with additional burials on February 1, 2008
Posey Chapel was built in 1841 for the families in the area
of the Methodist faith. It was one of the county's older landmarks. See our
Galena Township
church histories for photo and additional information. The Chapel was
located next to the Posey Chapel Cemetery where, for well over 125 years,
families had laid their departed to rest.
Below are many of the burials in
Posey Chapel Cemetery. Keep in mind that Posey Chapel Cemetery is very close to
the Michigan and Indiana state line. If you can not find your ancestor in the
La Porte Census, you might try the county next door, Berrien County Michigan.
