Duck Creek & Edwards Roads

Columbia Township

submitted by Shirlene L  Jensen

The Duck Creek Baptist Church and cemetery was established in 1827. William Marsh sold the land to John Ferris, Thomas Cooper, Richard A Morten, Benjamin Bridge and James Lyon Jr. In 1900 it was abandoned. Records of the cemetery are at the Cincinnati Historical Society and the area was cleared for the I-71 Highway in the 1960’s. These stones were copied before the destruction began.
