Weldon Cemetery. The Thompson Brothers Lumber Company (later Champion Lumber Company) donated four acres of land at this site to the people of the Weldon Community for a cemetery in 1912. The first persons buried here that year were one-year-old Louise Driskell and her two-year-old brother, Leo, both victims of diphtheria. Among the graves are those of area pioneers and their descendants, as well as veterans of the Civil War, World War I, World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. The Weldon Civic Club and a cemetery association care for the historic graveyard. #11066
