This is a very small cemetery located in Eagle Twp., just outside of Rawson, OH. It's located in Section 4 of Eagle Twp., on the
east side of (SR698), near (TR48). This cemetery although very old is still actively being used.
I have just recently received
a set of cd's containing photo images of every memorial stone in this cemetery, by the kindness of Elaine Deeley. I will begin
formatting and adding these photos & transcriptions to this page as time allows me. I will attempt to place them in
actual ordered rows instead of alphabetized.
The most recent update to this page was made on 1 June, 2008.
