*********************** BIG OAK FLAT CEMETERY ************* Atop the divide between Big Oak Flat and Groveland a road turns south to Oak Grove Cemetery and its older companion, The Oddfellows' Cemetery. The title first used was St. John's cemetery in honor of Mr. C.A. S. John who was a lawyer living in Big Oak Flat during the 1860's and who donated the land. The name was eventually changed because, it is said, of its misleading implication--strangers often mistook it for a Catholic Cemetery. (From: 'Big Oak Flat Toad to Yosemite' by Irene D. Paden & Margaret E. Schlichtmann. The burial records are from the Oak Grove Cemetery District.)
