Corner Road @ St. Philomena Church, Stonelick Twp.
N 39˚
07.689 W
084˚ 11.142
752 Elev. within 25ft
Directions: Take Rt. 50 from Milford towards Owensville. Pass through
Perintown. Continue on Rt. 50. Take left on
Stonelick Williams Corner
Road. If you come to St. Rt 222 – you have gone too far.
Continue on Stonelick Williams
Corner Road until you pass over a
bridge. Get ready to turn right (Balzhiser Lane?) – you will
see the church. Good
parking in church parking lot. Wear appropriate
shoes to climb hills. (take some time to continue on Stonelick
Williams
Corner Road to see the Stonelick Covered Bridge and the beautiful
valley surrounding this area).
Pictures and inscriptions taken by Pamela Smith, CCGS member
and Vera
Quehl, volunteer, helped
one day. There are a lot more stones than we
could find. I dug a lot-- but the cemetery is located
on a hill and I
think they are embedded deep in the hillside. I have attached a picture
from the 1880’s
on how the cemetery looked at that time.
There are hardly any standing stones presently in the older
section.
There were a few monuments that the inscriptions were unreadable, but I
could figure out
who they were by rubbings. I retook the pictures a few
times several different days, but they never
came out readable. Could
not locate previously recorded:
Bauer, Appolona
Bauer, Joseph & Catherine
Chrisman, Louis
Chrisman, Annie
Craver, Georgia (I have corrected as Cecelia – same dates as
Georgia)
Gomien, Edward
Gostigan, John
Powdal, Thomas
Slaughter, John
Valter, Johney
