Center Township, Hendricks County, Indiana
NW ¼ of the NW ¼ of Sec 34, T16N R2W
Visited June 19, 2005
Directions:
Go north on N Washington Street (CR 0) from US 36 in Danville 1.8 miles. Turn east onto the lane for house #1907. Follow the lane to the house. The cemetery is in the south yard past the pool.
Corners:
NW: N39°47.229’ W86°31.153’
SE: N39°47.227’ W86°31.141’
Approximate Center:
N39°47.228’ W86°31.147’ or
N394714 W863109
Condition:
This cemetery is in the side yard of a residence. There is no fence, but two corner posts remain. It is mowed like the rest of the yard. There is only one large monument with a stone grave cover. However, there are eight names on the single stack stone and no grave indentations. Leaning against the stone were old stones for two of the Arnold children (Margaret and Benjamin). On the west face of the monument are John and Hannah Arnold. On the south face are four names. The top one is Rebecca Arnold, John’s mother. There are also three of John and Hannah’s children: Benjamin, Margaret, and Allen. From the order of the death dates, it is clear that this stone was carved as a replacement for earlier markers. Strangely, the east face of the stone bears two modern names: Robert and Jane Clodfelder, deaths in 1993 and 1994. The north side of the stone is blank.
