Tesson Cemetery

This tract was allotted to Joseph Tesson, who, although not Iowa, but instead French-Sauk (Sac & Fox), gained land by marrying two sisters of Chief James White Cloud. The cemetery is the resting place for many of their relations, including Chief James White Cloud (1840-1940). There was once a farmhouse in the lot to the east, but a tornado destroyed it. Please respect this resting place of our ancestors.
