Search for in

Located on the line between sections 21 and 22 in Pearl township. It is surrounded by land owned by S. Wanick. South from Pearl, one mile on Route 100, take first road to right (a winding road up a steep hill), pass the first house after the top of the hill, take the first road to the left and go one mile south. This road winds around a field and a short distance around a wooded area. The plot of about 4 acres is fenced with cyclone fence and is well maintained. Burials date from 1836 to 1975. Over 200 flat-creek stones mark many graves. A few have names and dates chiseled in them. Cemetery Book Volume V lists 323 burials, some of which are indicated by the flat-creek stones.
