Exploring Almost Forgotten Gravesites in the Great State of Ohio

Dedicated to cemetery preservation in the great state of Ohio


"A cemetery may be considered as abandoned when all or practically all of the bodies have been Removed therefrom and no bodies have been buried therein for a great many years, and the cemetery has been so long neglected as entirely to lose its identity as such, and is no longer known, recognized and respected by the public as a cemetery. 1953 OAG 2978."

Spotlighting "Corn and Cotton Genealogy" and Thanking "C & C" for Their Kind Words about "Exploring Almost Forgotten Gravesites"

Extending my thanks to Stephanie Pitcher Fishman who produces her fantastic blog "Corn and Cotton Genealogy" for mentioning me and this blog in her latest post. 

More importantly however, to those of us who do extensive research in the Great State of Ohio (and we all know just how great Ohio is!!) is that the latest post is devoted to the topic:

 "Ohio Genealogy Resources:  Coroner's Records and Obituaries." 

 It is packed with useful 'must-read' information about where and how to find these sometimes elusive records that we routinely seek to complete our biographies about our deceased relatives and ancestors.

So, please click on the title to link to "Corn and Cotton" -- I heartily recommend it!
