Below is an enlargement of the listing shown at the bottom right-hand corner of the Cemetery Index Page (Page 2) that contains the names of veterans with unknown burial locations.: 

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

There are some cemeteries that list American Revolutionary War veterans burials, but two stand out as having more considering their size.:

The Pioneer Cemetery in Sugar Creek Township lists four.:

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

The Stevenson Cemetery lists 12 American Revolutionary War veteran burials.: 

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

Below is a handy guide showing the listing of the numbers associated with the wars ranging from 1 through 33, with number 31 being World War I or the "World War" which was a term used for it at the time the war was being fought.  That is a "good to know fact" if you are researching historical newspapers published from 1914 - 1918 (when the war was fought) and onward until World War II began.   

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

Note:  Number 31, the last number on the listing, shows as "World War" which we know it today to having been WWI.

"XENIA TWP."

"Xenia Township has received a $5,000 matching grant for the restoration of 58 veteran grave stones and markers from as early as the revolutionary war in its Stevenson Cemetery on Jones Road. 

The restoration project was made possible from Cedar Cliff Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution and matching grant funds came from the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution. 

Any interested person can register for a four-hour basic headstone restoration class if they agree to — under direct supervision — clean three other headstones in Stevenson Cemetery within a month of taking the class. 

********

The class will be offered 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Friday, June 2 at the cemetery. The rain date for the event is Saturday, June 3. 

**To RSVP, call Mary at 937-372-0859 by noon Thursday, June 1."**
