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."

Monday, May 25, 2020 - Memorial Day - A Day of Remembrance honoring American's fallen heroes - All Saints Cemetery, Northfield, Summit County, Ohio


Remembering and thanking those brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice on our behalf that has kept us safe and enjoying our freedoms throughout our lifetimes. 
Each year Memorial Day is the day that is set aside to honor and thank America's fallen heroes; yet knowing that in truth, we can never thank them enough.  
Praying they all rest in a richly deserved eternal peace.

The Northfield-Macedonia Cemetery in Summit County is a memorable cemetery to visit and re-visit!

Before heading out to visit the Northfield-Macedonia Cemetery in Summit County, Ohio (also known as Chestnut Hill Cemetery, Northfield Cemetery, Macedonia Cemetery, or Northfield Cemetery) set aside some time to read.:
the "History of the Northfield-Macedonia Cemetery Compiled by John B. Hudgeon" in 1967 to gain a greater grasp of the cemetery's history and learn about some of the caretakers of its hallowed grounds over the years.  
So enjoy the 'online stroll' viewing the photos below; as sort of a mini-trip to the Northfield-Macedonia Cemetery.  Then see for yourself in person this history-rich cemetery that stands poised to have a bright future for decades to come.

My Memorial Day Visit to All Saints Cemetery in Northfield, Summit County, Ohio

I visited All Saints Cemetery in Northfield, Summit County, Ohio on this Memorial Day, 2013 looking for veterans stones to photograph.  Of course, there are more there than I could easily count, but I chose a few of them to photograph and share today.  They are all in Section 4.

Only one interment was posted on "Find A Grave" of those markers that I photographed, and it was missing the tombstone photograph.  So I was able to add the picture of it to the memorial today.
