MONNETT FAMILY MEMORIAL GROUP

This section is comprised by a very large black granite family marker bearing the name MONNETT, and then an “avenue” of smaller personal stones, again in black granite.  The intent was to create a well-designed monument to the family.  However, by the time the stones began to be used, Monnett Chapel as a preferred cemetery had passed; several of the smaller stones thus were used to denote when a family member was buried elsewhere.

Wright Family Marker Monnett Memorial Chapel Cemetery Crawford County Ohio

The G.H. Wright Family marker (cast metal) was placed in the cemetery when the Wright's planned to use the cemetery as collective resting place.  Originally only one member of the family was laid to rest at Monnett -- G.H. and Martha Ellen Monnett Wright's infant daughter Mattie who died at age 9 months. Later, the Wright's eldest son Earl was buried at the cemetery, but in an unmarked grave.
