Location:

This is an active cemetery located in the extreme southeastern corner of Warren County in Harlan Township. It straddles Morrow-Woodville Road (County Road 24) just south of Stonelick Creek on the north side of the Village of West Woodville (now Woodville) in Wayne Township, Clermont County, Ohio. Various Warren County maps from 1856 through 1903 all show the village [with the name "West Woodville"] straddling the county line with the cemetery on the north boundary. Not sure when the name was changed from "West Woodville" to "Woodville"
The "Old Section" is located on the west side of the road and the "New Section" is located on the east side of the road. The earliest burial recorded on the extant tombstones was in 1827 [Note: The Plum Run or Zoar Cemetery in Hamilton Twp is known as Woodville in the USGS GNIS]
