The Chezem Cemetery is a small family burying plot, with not many stones left standing. Trees have grown up in it and it would be hard to find without help. It is located 2-1/4 miles south of Jewett, and less than 1/2 mile east, then north back in the woods, on the farm owned by Mr. & Mrs. Lee Sowers. It is in Woodbury Township, Cumberland County, Illinois. Sec. 31 T9 R7.

Lee and Goldie Sowers were my great grandparents. I’ve been back to this cemetery once and there were only three stones left standing.
