Directions:
There are no visible signs of this cemetery. It is currently in a cultivated field on the south side of Church Street, just west of where Short Street would intersect if it still continued. It is most likely in the west part of the field.
Corners: (corners are for the entire field, which should encompass the entire cemetery):
NW: N39°40.474’ W86°29.387’
NE: N39°40.488’ W86°29.323’
SE: N39°40.433’ W86°29.321’

Condition:
This cemetery was plowed under between 1935 and 1940. The farmer removed the stones so he could plow the area more easily. Some of the gravestones are said to have been used as stepping-stones to his barn. There are no records of names or photographs of the cemetery. It appears on a Belleville map in the 1878 Atlas.
