FALLBROOK – Members of the preservation and restoration committee of the Questers Live Oak #1166 recently completed a rock-faced wall at the Pioneer Odd Fellows Cemetery.
The chapter raised funds, applied for, and received a Quester state grant, accepted a granite plaque donated by Borst Designs Photo Engraving and installed the retaining wall to prevent grave slippage at the cemetery.
The cemetery is the final resting place of several of Fallbrook’s early pioneers including the Gird Family and the Reverend William Pittenger, a Civil War Medal of Honor winner.
The Questers is an international study group founded in 1944, to stimulate an appreciation of antiques and their collection, and to encourage the preservation and restoration of historical landmarks.
