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."

"BLOOMINGBURG, Ohio — Historian and educator Paul LaRue will lead a program called “A Walk in the Bloomingburg Cemetery” on Monday, June 16, 2025, at 6:30 p.m., giving a tour of prominent gravesites from Fayette County. The Bloomingburg Cemetery is located on State Route 38 in Bloomingburg."

"The “cemetery walk” is open to the public. LaRue’s tours provide history and genealogical facts about prominent people of Fayette County, and this tour will focus on Bloomingburg.

A former history teacher and researcher, LaRue’s tours are educational and informative. He thanked the Bloomingburg Cemetery Board “for allowing this tour to take place.”

The Fayette County Genealogical Society is sponsoring the tour. All are welcome to attend and learn from history, LaRue said."
