Note from caretaker:
The Fancher - Seitz Cemetery was established in 1839 with the passing of Sarah Jarnigan Fancher, wife of Richard Fancher and mother of Col. James Fancher. Sarah died just one year after arriving in Arkansas.
The cemetery is located on the original Col. James F. Fancher homestead along the Osage River about two miles east of the old town of Fairview, now known as Osage. It is along the road to Delmar and not far from the Thomas Washington Fancher homestead cemetery (est. 1892), known as the Fancher - IOOF cemetery.
Caretakers for this cemetery have been: Elizabeth Carlock Fancher, Elizabeth Sneed Fancher, James Polk Fancher, Joseph Fancher, Bessie Mae Fancher, Ruth Fancher Crow, Tom C. Morris III and Lynn-Marie Fancher.
Current designated family caretakers for this cemetery are Tom C. Morris III of Bentonville, Arkansas and Lynn-Marie Fancher of Milwaukie, Oregon. Questions and donations can be directed to: Fancher Family Memoral Fund, 508 W. Central, Bentonville, Arkansas 72712.
There is currently a grave maker in this cemetery that was originally placed in 2000 for Alexander Fanshier. It was placed over the grave of Asenath Fancher Morris. Alexander Fancher (Fanshier) is not buried in this cemetery and this marker should be considered a cenotaph. There has never been any proof submitted to the descendants of Col. James Fancher that Alexander Fancher is buried in this cemetery and this assertion does not match the well-kept cemetery records of the James Fancher family.
