History of Sunnyside Cemetery The origin of Sunnyside Cemetery is hidden in obscurity. On October 29, 1846, the SE 1/4 of the SE 1/4 of Section 8 in the town of Menomonee was deeded to Joel Bancroft. Sunnyside Cemetery is located in this parcel of land. The first burial was Betsy Waterman, age 32, who died in 1847. She is not buried near the Bancroft lots so it is assumed that she was not related to them. Joel Bancroft died in 1848. In December of 1848 this parcel was sold to Abner Rowe who sold it to Daniel and Charity Smith in May of 1851. On March 3, 18855, the Menomonee Center Cemetery Association was organized. There were seven recorded burials prior to this date and from their locations it is obvious that the cemetery was platted out at some prior time, although there is no record of a cemetery being in any of the deeds or abstracts for this parcel of land. On January 3, 1862, one acre comprising the original plat was deeded to the Menomonee Center Cemetery Association by Daniel and Charity Smith. On October 1, 1888 Daniel Smith's son, George and his wife, Elizabeth deeded the First Addition to the cemetery. This is the area from the big maple trees down highway 74, then known as Waukesha road. In June of 1892, the name of Menomonee Center Cemetery Association was changed to Menomonee Union Sunnyside Cemetery and in June of 1894 changed again to Menomonee Sunnyside Cemetery. Later in 1894 it was re-named again to Sunnyside Cemetery. In 1898 a narrow strip of land on the south and west sides containing a row of maple trees was sold to the cemetery for $1.00 by George and Elizabeth Smith. In 1922 a 1 1/2 acre strip of land on the north side was purchased from Nicholas and Anna Lauer, and in 1960 a 4.022 acre parcel on the south and west side was purchased from Alvin and Charles Smith. It was discovered that both the State of Wisconsin and Waukesha County claimed to have no record of the cemetery being organized or incorporated, so on February 24, 1975 the Sunnyside Cemetery Association was re-organized and incorporated in accordance with the regulations of the State of Wisconsin. Old records in our possession indicate that the incorporation of the Menomonee Center Cemetery Association of March 3, 1855 was indeed recorded in Vol. 1, page 37 by Wm. R. Williams, Register of Deeds, Waukesha County on March 28, 1855! As of April 15, 2000, Sunnyside Cemetery contains 2278 burials with probably a few more early burials in unmarked graves or those where stones were broken off. Negotiations are presently under way to acquire an additional 9.6 acres behind the cemetery for future expansion. Dated April 18, 2000 Article submitted by Lois Clementi (Rec'd June 5, 2002)

"Amanda" Bancroft, as she was affectionately know to her many relatives and friends passed on to her reward at her house in the village, Monday, Mar 8, aged 82 years. At her bedside were her daughter and son. She was in excellent health up to a week before the end, but on the evening of February 25 she suffered a slight paralytic stroke, which was the primary cause of death. Her going marks the rapidly decreasing number of those rugged pioneers of Wisconsin's early days. Mrs. Bancroft was the daughter of William and Maria MINOR of Riga, Monroe county, New York, where she was born on Mar 4,(?) 1832. In the year 1847 her parents came to Wisconsin by way of the Great Lakes, the trip being made in September and the voyage proved a stormy one. They arrived in Menomonee and settled on what is now known as the Minor farm. In the years following the deceased and her family labored steadily to complete the home. On Nov. 4, 1849, she was united in marriage to George Bancroft. They were blessed with four children, three of whom are now living. They are Mrs. Ella WOOD of Waupaca, Charles, who resides here, and Bert, of Waukesha. Time had dealt kindly with this noble pair and they were spared to celebrate their golden wedding anniversary in 1899. Mrs. Bancroft died in 1905. Of her family one sister remains, Mrs. Jane SMITH of Milwaukee. There are three grand-children and three great grand-children. The deceased as a devoted member of the M. E. Church.

USMC WWII Dengel, Carmela, 1909 - 1984 Dent, Richard, "In memory of", 1799 - 5/11/1879, ae. 79 yrs. 10 mo. 8 days Richard DENT was born in Lincolnshire, England, in 1800, and was a son of Joseph DENT, a man of some prominence and considerable wealth. In 1804, Joseph DENT, with his family, emigrated from England to America and settled in the town of Oxford, Chenango County, N.Y. At that time that part of the state was practically unsettled, and the DENT family were among its pioneers. They continued to reside there until after the death of the wife and mother, Nancy (TONG) DENT. Subsequently the father re-married and removed to Licking County, Ohio, where he spent the remainder of his life. Joseph DENT had five sons and two daughters who grew to mature years, all of whom save one, were by his first marriage; however, all of that generation of the DENT family have passed away. Richard, the father of James S. DENT, grew to manhood on the home farm in the state of New York, and at the age of twenty-two years was united in marriage to Miss Jean McGibbon, who was born in Scotland in 1799, and come to America with her father's family when but four years old. Her mother died on the passage across the ocean and was buried in the sea. Her father, with his large family of children, settled in Delaware County, N.Y., where one of the sons, the only surviving member of the family, still lives. After his marriage Richard DENT continued to reside in the Empire State until 1842, when he emigrated with his family to the territory of Wisconsin. They came from Buffalo by way of the Great Lakes to Chicago. Our subject, though but a lad remembers distinctly the more interesting events of the journey. Chicago was then but a small uninviting place, and gave no promise of its present greatness. He remembers landing on a pier made of tamarack poles, and that he formed quite an unfavorable impression of the place and its surroundings. The family consisted of the parents and seven children, five sons and two daughters. The eldest of the brothers, Joseph H. DENT, had come from the state of New York in 1839, and by him the family was conducted to Prairieville, now Waukesha, making the trip from Chicago by team. For one year the family lived on the place of A. C. Nickell, about two and a-half miles south of the village, and then removed to the town of Menomonee, Waukesha County, (then Milwaukee County) where they settled on Milwaukee & Rock River Canal land. This was land ceded by the general Government to the territory of Wisconsin to aid in the building of a canal between Milwaukee and Rock River, and consisted of a strip, ten sections in breadth, along the entire length of the proposed canal from Milwaukee, through Waukesha and Jefferson Counties to Lake Koshkonong. It is needless to say the canal was never completed and only resulted in giving Milwaukee a good water power. An act was passed by the Legislature whereby all persons who had bought canal lands at twenty shillings per acre, were given a "float" or a certificate of ten shillings per acre which could be applied the same as money on the purchase of other lands on that strip. Thus Mr. DENT obtained his land at a comparatively small cost. The patent to Richard DENT, bearing the signature of Gov. Henry DODGE and dated August 1, 1847, is now in the possession of his son, James S., who owns the original homestead. The land was heavily timbered, but the father and elder sons cleared it up and made of it a valuable farm. There the parents spent the remainder of their lives, the father dying on the 11th of May, 1850 and the mother, December 24, 1878. Of the family of Richard DENT, comprising nine persons, who came together to the territory of Wisconsin in 1842, only James S. and one sister are living. Joseph H., the eldest of the children, who as stated above preceded the family to Wisconsin by three years, was accidentally killed in 1857, being struck by his plow-handle while plowing on his farm in Green Lake County. He left a wife, one daughter and two sons. The latter are still living, and both served in the Thirty-first Wisconsin Infantry in the late war. William M. died August 14, 1852. His widow re-married and is now a resident of Milwaukee. Her daughter, Mrs. James E. DAVIS, also lives in that city. Another of the brothers, John T. DENT, enlisted in the Thirty-first Wisconsin Infantry, and died of typhoid fever in the field hospital in Atlanta, the day after General SHERMAN's army entered that city. The subject of this article is next in order of birth. Helen is the widow of O.P. MINOR, of Cherokee, Iowa. Olive became the wife of David HALL, and died in December, 1880. Andrew B. volunteered in the First Wisconsin Infantry and was killed in the battle of Perryville, October 8, 1862. PORTRAIT AND BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD
