The Solomon Dean Chapter, Nevada, Iowa, was organized in
1922 by Miss Carolyn Dean, Organizing Regent and Miss Sybil Danskin, who were members at large and became charter members of
the local chapter.
In August of 1935 a native boulder, more than four feet in
height and weighing over four tons, was placed in the Nevada
cemetery. In October of that same year, a bronze memorial
plate bearing the date of the year of organization of Solomon
Dean Chapter, and the year of the placement of the Memorial
stone was added.
Smaller bronze plates are inscribed with the names of some of
the deceased members.
