Most recent update to this page made on 22 June, 2004.

I first read and photo documented this cemetery on 28 April, 2000. This Cemetery is located on CR16 (Sportsman Club Rd.) just east of Castle Road (TR164). North of Johnstown, between SR62 and CR 21(Northridge Rd.). This cemetery is rather old, and many of the stones here as a result of the lengthened duration of weathering, required much more time and patience to transcribe. Many of the memorial stones were completely buried under the grass and soil. The dry summer conditions caused the grass to be brown where there were memorial stones buried a few inches under the soil. I attribute this to my finding stones that were not enumerated at the last reading in the early 1960s. My best guess is that there are many stones missing. The oldest burial that I found in this cemetery was Nathan Kelso, died Nov. 30, 1832. As always, I strive to be accurate as possible, using only approved and acceptable methods to retrieve information from the stones. However, I make no claim to being 100% correct, I realize this may be the only information available, but also verify when possible with state or county records. This cemetery is located next to road; large portion of this cemetery has never been used. It is very well cared for, trees nicely trimmed, and lawn freshly mowed. Cemetery is highest at rear, ground sloping slightly downward from back to front, and right to left, when facing cemetery from road. My readings started at left side (when facing cemetery) and rows read from front to back. All information in standard text was read directly from stones, any information contained within brackets [ ] or not shown in bold, will be my personal observations, comments, and/or knowledge which are not transcribed from the stones. Any information contained within brackets [ ] with a * symbol will be additional information taken from readings done in the 1960’s, shared with me by the kindness of Mr. & Mrs. (Lee & Dorothy) Riffe. Also wish to thank Township Trustee Larry Riffe and his wife, who have continued to support and share our effort to enumerate Liberty Township cemeteries. Wish also to express my thanks to Beth Shively, who recently visited this cemetery and found an additional memorial that I had missed. It will be noted by the double astrisk**, being row 6, stoneix. Thanks Beth for your kindness in sharing this update. I am responsible with a few exceptions noted above, for information contained in this report. My hopes are that this research will be useful to the descendents of the loved ones interred here. Robert M. Sizelove, Sr.© 2000 - 2007.
