The OES visited Job's Cemetery on July 30, 2007. Also known as Hiob's Cemetery, this cemetery is along the old Amanda Northern Road near Canal Winchester at the site of Saint Job's German Reformed and Evangelical Lutheran Church. The church's cornerstone remains in the cemetery stating "HIOB'S CHURCH BUILT BY THE EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN & GERMAN CONGREGATION IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD 1849." The church was demolished years ago and the records were moved to the Reformed Church in Canal Winchester. There are quite a few burials here and the cemetery was extremely well taken care of during our visit. Most of the stones are intact and can be read. There were a few broken stones and some were not in their original positions. According to records, the earliest burials took place in the 1830s and the most recent was in the 1960s.
