| General Information |
| The OES visited Scioto-Strader Cemetery on October 18, 2002. Although the cemetery was founded in 1888, the oldest stone in the cemetery dates back to 1825. It could be possible that some graves were relocated here. The cemetery encompasses about 5 acres and is generally in good shape as it has been cared for by township trustees since 1920. Many of the stones date from the late 1800s to the mid 1900s. There is a small building on the property built into the side of a hill where bodies were stored throughout the winter so that they could be buried in warmer weather (when the ground is softer). | |
