Directions:
Take Washington Street (CR 0) north out of Danville. The cemetery is on the east side of the road, approximately across from Northridge Drive. Park at the white house (#1331). Ask permission, as the cemetery is on their private property. Cemetery is just a few feet north of the house.
Corners:
NW: N39°46.848’ W86°31.435’
SE: N39°46.839’ W86°31.424’
Approximate Center:
N39°46.844’ W86°31.430’ or
N394651 W863126
Condition:
The four corner posts and some of the fence still remain around the cemetery. It is currently being mowed on all four sides. The cemetery itself is completely overgrown with weeds and brairs though a local Boy Scout troop cleaned out the large growth a couple of years ago. One large stack stone is standing and visible over the weeds (Mary & John Templin). It in the middle of the west side of the cemetery. There is a fallen stack stone for Lucinda Templin, wife of Terah Templin in the northwest corner. It is probable that his name is on the other side of the stone but it was too heavy to move. There are two grave depressions and two footstone in that area. John Templin's original tablet stone is located to the south of his large shared stack stone (he died 27 years before her). A tablet stone for their son William is to the north of his parents' stack stone. Two tablets for sons of John and Mary (John W. and Jasper) are lying on the ground to the east of the large stack. The tablet stone for Elizabeth Templin found in 2005 was not found in 2007, though may have been covered by leaves.
