Davis Cemetery

Warren Township, WR055

Data Entry by Cheryl Dixon from an October 1989 list in the State Library

[All notes are from the original list]

This cemetery is located at 2661 Senour Road on property owned by C. H. Willman. His three children attended Warren Central.

Many stones are turned upside down, turned around, imbedded in soil, or are too weathered to read. Possibly none are in original place according to property owner. Numbers are hard or impossible to read. Number 8 could be 3; number 3 could be 8. The same applies to letters.

The small stones with initials only appear to be footstones.

One stone was removed to Crown Hill, but it is not know which one.
