Location: Penn Township, section 32. From the Pleasant Plain Road go west on 153rd Street to Nectarine, a dirt road. Turn left and bear south about 3/4 mile. The cemetery, on the west side of the road, is a short distance back into a mowed pasture. It is in a fenced-in area with a walk through gate. (see township map.)

Burials: 1846 to 1962

Condition: One fallen stone.

Mowed: New growth of multiflora rose and 8" cedar trees mowed October 2002. As of 2015, it's an overgrown mess again.
