Elick, Eligh, Juelgh Cemetery
Off Shephard Road, Union Township

Pictures taken by Pamela Smith, fall of 2010. This cemetery
is on private property and
you must have permission to enter. It looks like it is on the
Nature Center Property but
not real sure. I was disappointed to find that all
the stones were gone. I guess the
neighborhood children over the years have moved them, etc.
but I was excited to see a
cemetery so close to my residence and in doing my regular research was
able to learn a
little history about my area. The cemetery sits way up on a hill not
close to Barg Salt Run
Road but the old Grosebeck Road that ran off of Barg Salt Run
Road. Old records state
100 feet from Grosebeck Road. You walk on flat ground from
Shepherd Road into the
woods heading toward the Nature Center. The
cemetery sits up on a knoll with a creek
surrounding right side of the cemetery. There was a
very large dead tree at the entrance
of the cemetery. If you walk along the creek then come up on the ridge
to the left you will
find it sooner or later. I could hear trail walkers when I
was there so it must be straight
across the creek from a trail at the Nature Center. The trip
to the cemetery is not necessary
because there really isn’t anything left to see but one small piece of
a stone with an age inscription.
