| The Inscriptions from the Old Village Cemetery state, "Reichert, John, d. Aug. 23, 1857 ae 38." John was born c1819. He is not listed in the Census nor is there a deed filed under his name. His tombstone says he died on 23 August 1857 at the age of 38. Berea’s newspapers were not published yet. |
