Harrison Avenue cuts through this cemetery and some
stones
were lost. It was copied in April 30, 1950 by C E Dubbs and is part of
the Marie Dickore Research Collection.
[Note: At one time there were 2 cemeteries in Cheviot
across the street from each other on Harrison Ave. just west of
Glenmore
Ave. The cemetery on the south side of Harrison Ave. was called the
Township
Cemetery or Green Township Cemetery & the one on the north
side
was called the Bethel Baptist Cemetery. The Township Cemetery is now a
parking lot and the remains were reintered at Bridgetown
Protestant Cemetery. See Cheviot's Historical Societies History
of Cheviot at the City of Cheviot's website.
Hamilton County, Ohio, Burial Records: Vol. 10:
Green
Township by HCCOGS notes that gravestone readings for both
cemeteries
were combined when published in Hamilton County, Ohio Cemetery
Inscriptions,
Vol. II by Robert D. Craig. The transcription below as well as a
second
transcription called "Cheviot Cemetery"
appear to be combined readings of the 2 cemeteries. Hamilton
County,
Ohio, Burial Records: Vol. 10 attempts to seperate the the 2
cemeteries
& contains additional information than what is listed here.
Also see Bethel Baptist Cemetery for pictures of the
Richardson
Family Monument listed below.
