The Springboro Cemetery Association was organized 26 Aug 1865 with Seth H. Ellis, William Carpenter, C. B. Surface, James Allen and Joseph H. Haines the 1st trustees. The association purchased a 2 1/2 acre parcel from the Associates Reformed Church which had used the site as a burial place from an early date until 1857. In addition, other parcels were purchased adjacent to the church parcel. Ambrose Taylor was contracted to lay out the grounds with the plat recorded June 6, 1866. There were 9 interments in 1866. The cemetery has been active ever since, expanding to both sides of Lower Springboro Road as can be seen from the aerial maps (see links below)
