Directions:
This cemetery is on the southeast corner of the intersection of SR 267 and Maloney Road, north of Brownsburg. It is visible from the road.
Corners (This cemetery angles with the road):
NW: N39°53.350’ W86°23.507’
NE: N39°53.350’ W86°23.487’
SE: N39°53.241’ W86°23.465’

Approximate Center:
N39°53.296’ W86°23.485’ or
N395318 W862329
Condition:
This cemetery is mowed and partially fenced and maintained. The new section, which is on the north end, has no maintenance issues. In the older southern section, some stones have been restored and others have not. Some of the large stack stones have been reset on a poured concrete pad and put together with setting compound, which is appropriate. There are still some large stack stones that are leaning precariously and a couple that have fallen. The tablets have not been restored. Some have fallen and are sinking face up in the ground. Others are leaning or broken. Hopefully restoration will continue to include the entire cemetery.
