Reporting Recent Vandalism at the Raymond Cemetery in Liberty Township Union County, Ohio

Once again, vandals have struck an Ohio cemetery.  There has been recent vandalism at the Raymond Cemetery located in Liberty Township, Union County, Ohio. 

The news story appears in the April 4th edition of the "Marysville Journal-Tribune". 

The Union County Sheriff is investigating. We hope that those responsible are apprehended soon and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.  

Featuring the Blog "History in Stone"

Whenever you visit "Exploring Almost Forgotten Gravesites in Ohio" please take a moment to view the blogs that appear on the right side bar.  I try to revise the list, 'weeding out' those that have few updates and replacing them with other blogs that are more active that bring current news or fresh stories.  

I added a new blog today called "History in Stone" which is also a member of the "Association of Graveyard Rabbits" so you know it is gravestone and cemetery focused.  

You'll see snippets from the latest posts under the blog titles here, so you can choose which ones you wish to read in full. 

I ask my followers to please let me know about any gravestone and/or cemetery related blogs, particularly those relevant to Ohio, that are missing here.  I will be pleased to take a look at them and consider adding them for your reference.  

So, please take a moment and enjoy some 'blog time' reading your favorites!

Joseph T. Limes (1858 - 1886) - Find A Grave Memorial

The tombstone for Joseph T. Limes is the most prominent stone in the Staunton cemetery.

It has a tall white marble statue of a bugler on top. The inscription reads:

"Tis music charms the soul to live in hearts we leave behind is not to die. A sunbeam from the world has vanished."
