The above was written by the DAR in the 1940's.
The grave of Abraham Grindle son of S. & M.A. Grindle is still in the old section of this cemetery. He died Aug. 18, 1850 aged 4m.2d. This is the earliest grave I found in this cemetery. As of October 1994, every stone was read in the entire cemetery.
This cemetery has been worked on more than once. In the old section there are indications, at some point in time, this cemetery was almost destroyed. In many places, the gravestones are set in cement. They are placed in rows of like names and possibly of families. I believe this was done back in the early 1900's due to the appearance of the cement. The current caretaker told me that in the last few years he had repaired and reset many stones. I was very impressed with the care given to this old cemetery.
It is still in use today. The township provides the trustee with the funds to keep up the maintenance and care of this cemetery. There is still plenty of room for expansion. Three sides are bordered by farmland, with State Road #13 bordering the west side.
