Someone cared enough about Ira Yoder, the founder of the former Butler County Mushroom Farm in Winfield Township, to have a bronze plaque dedicated to his memory.

Now, the plaque, which also celebrates a 56-year anniversary of some kind, rests in storage at the Winfield Township building after being moved from Roebling Park in Saxonburg.

Saxonburg Borough Council voted at its March meeting to approve moving the Ira Yoder/mushroom mine memorial from Roebling Park to Winfield Township, where the mine was located.

But nobody knows the history on what appears to be the double memorial.

Anyone with information on the Ira D. Yoder memorial is asked to call the Winfield Township office at 724-352-3333.
