Hopewell Cemetery (New Section)

This Cemetery is about 6 miles North of Dana, Vermillion Co., IN. The old one is approximately 1/2 mile South and 1/4 mile East of the Hopewell Friends Church. It is in a large pasture, but fenced. Many of the stones are off the graves and piled around two trees, some broken. Early in the 1900's, they were beginning to use the new Cemetery which is adjacent to the Church. It is still in use. The Cemetery was read in 1968 by James Johnson and rechecked in 1975 by Mrs. Lester Haworth and Grace Canaday of Georgetown, IL.
