Visited June 19, 2005 and December 27, 2007

Corners:
NW: N39°49.212’ W86°32.529’
SE: N39°49.194’ W86°32.509’
Approximate Center:
N39°49.203’ W86°32.519’ or
N394912 W863231
Condition:
This cemetery used to be in poor condition. There were many prominent grave depressions. Large granite monuments had sunk and fallen off their bases. Almost every stack stone had either fallen or was badly leaning. Many tablets had fallen and were sinking face up into the ground. In the fall of 2007, StoneHugger and StoneSaver restoration companies were hired by the Center Township Trustee to restore the cemetery. The difference is striking.
