I visited Forest Cemetery in Circleville, Pickaway County, Ohio on July 19, 2012. I found evidence of the aftermath of the violent thunderstorms that had rolled through the area not long before. There were tree branches down in the cemetery. Some limbs were cracked from tree trunks and hanging down which were awaiting removal.
Most of my time at Forest Cemetery was spent walking around in Section 11 where my Duvall family is buried - Jeremiah and Sigariah (Simmons) Duvall and some of their children and other family members.
Fortunately, the tree nearest to many of the Duvall gravesites had only a couple of cracked branches that were still attached to it. Thus, no damage was done to any of the grave markers or the large Duvall monument.
Below are a couple of photographs taken that illustrate the cracked branches on the tree near the gravesites of my Duvall ancestors buried at Forest Cemetery:
