From Bobbi
Tindle, (proofreading by her daughter, Warren
County Genealogical Society member Nicole Tindle)
"Research on this cemetery was done by Ron
and Bobbi Tindle on May 6, 2006. Bobbi’s family has lived in the
area of this cemetery since the 1950’s. Little is known to her family
about the history of the cemetery. Her mother, Judith A. (Smith) Booher
still lives in the area. Judith was told that the people were buried in that
location due to having died of the plague. Since the first known burial occurred
in 1833 and the last in 1884, I doubt that to be true information. It is possible
that maybe 1 or several people buried there did die of the plague but doubtful
that all of them did. The land now owned by Judith was once owned by her step
grandfather, Phillip Enz who inherited the land from his
father, Jacob Enz. That is the family that probably would
have known more about the history.
"This cemetery is in very poor shape. I believe that the residents who live closest to the cemetery are the ones mowing it once in a while but nothing more is being done. At one time, some neighborhood kids had gone into the cemetery and broke many of the stones. I also heard that some of them were even thrown over the hill toward the creek. I would bet that quite a few of the stones are no longer located in the correct places. They have been moved."
