Cheega Funeral Home has been a funeral home situated at it's current location for more than 165 years, making it one of the oldest funeral homes in the United States. Founded by John Davidson, the funeral home was sold to The William Hannold Family in 1850. The Hannolds operated the business for nearly 100 years when it became the Snover Funeral Home.
When the Snovers chose to relocate to Cinnaminson the Swedesboro facility was sold to Douglas Reymore in 1957, who operated the business until Dennis Cheega took over in August of 1974. It is difficult to find the precise date that Mr. Davidson established the funeral home. At an early age he became an undertaker's apprentice with William Scott of Woodbury.
