Old Rock Creek Cemetery


Photo by Six Dog Team

Old Rock Creek Cemetery is located in Rock Creek Township on County Road 300 N east of County Road 200 W. Its GPS coordinates are 40.78555N -85.25584W, originally posted by Jim Cox and Penny Baughman North on the Fort Wayne Genealogy Center.

It is an inactive cemetery. Earliest known burial was in 1846 (Jonathan Decker) and latest burial was in 1939 (Christena Kahn). Many of the stones are very difficult to read and records are hard to find.
NSF = No stone found; information from various sources; M/M = Mr. and Mrs.
Obit + indicates that the Word document contains both a tombstone photo and records.
Capitolized, bold surnames have a biography included with the document.

Thanks to Barbara Baker Anderson, Six Dog Team, and Tombstoner & Family for the tombstone photos they have shared.
