Previous posts on this blog have been devoted to Pickaway County Sheriff Sales (June 30, and July 21, 2020) where Floral Hills Memory Gardens in Walnut Township, Pickaway County, was scheduled to be auctioned off to the highest bidder.  

Sadly, there were no bids made in either auction for the cemetery, so now the five parcels of land included for Floral Hills Memory Gardens will once again be part of a land sale with the hope that this cemetery, listed as owned by the State of Ohio, will be sold.

Coshocton County, Ohio W.P.A. Cemetery Plat Maps have been added to the right side bar of the blog.

The collection of W.P.A. Cemetery Plat Maps for Coshocton County, Ohio have been added to the right side bar on the blog.  

These map images were converted from the .PDF format into .JPG format (picture format) from the website of the Coshocton County Engineer's Office.  

The Coshocton County cemeteries locator map, showing the names of the townships, enables the viewer to "hover" over the tiny black cross symbols and click on them to see the cemetery names. Clicking on an arrow brings up the maps. 

See example below.:

Once again, as is customary with other Ohio county W.P.A. Cemetery Plat map collections on Flickr, the arrangement is set up alphabetically by township name and cemetery name.

The map pages in the Coshocton County collection do not have page numbers.  

A few map images are essentially numbered burial plot drawings created for surveys.

See example below dated October 1, 2012.:

Please note, various township cemetery plat maps have the listing of veterans names and the designated numbers for the wars they served in, however, the actual burial locations are not given.  Some other maps have only partial burial locations provided for veterans.  

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Additionally, for West Lawn Cemetery in Oxford Township, Coshocton County, it is owned and managed by the Village of Newcomerstown in Tuscarawas County.  These map images are in a darkened but readable condition.  Traced and drawn during June - July, 1939 by Mr. John A. Limbaugh, the West Lawn Cemetery map sections are in multiple pages; some containing veterans names.:

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

In conclusion, Coshocton County's W.P.A. Cemetery maps collection includes what I feel is among the most outstanding looking cemetery maps that I have seen thus far in any county.  

It includes the veterans names, war number designations, burial locations, and is easy to read! 

It is for the Plainfield Cemetery in Linton Township.:
