Other Burial Locations in the Area of Wilmore, Comanche County, Kansas Another burial location, the Chitwood Cemetery, lies eight miles east of Wilmore in the northwest corner of S15-T31-R16. It dates back to the turn of the century and has not been used for many years. Other known gravesites in the Wilmore area include those in the northeast corner of S25-T32-R16, the southwest quarter of S29-T32-R17, and the southwest quarter of S26-T32-R17. The later location is presumably the Bethel Cemetery referred to in 1887 by the Nescatunga Enterprise. The paper listed the burials of Mr. and Mrs. A.H. Ellis's infant son and George Wheeler in March of that year. -- By Alzina Baker and Harriet Richardson, Comanche County History, page 134.
