Greenwood Cemetery
Turtlecreek Twp, Warren County, Ohio

What remains of this cemetery are in an overgrown wooded area next to a small ditch with corn fields on either side. All of the remaining tombstones and nearly all of the footstones are all now broken off and laying on the ground - some in pieces. Considering the placement of the remaining stones, there were probably many more burials and stones.
Location:  
  • The cemetery is located on the north side of Wilmington Road about 1/10th of a mile east of Waynesville Road between house numbers 4173 and 4229 Wilmington Rd. and just east of a culvert passing under the road.

    • The photos on this page were taken 21 Jul 2004 for the Warren County Genealogical Society when they were reading the cemetery and used here with their permission. Having footstones associated with a particular tombstone in the photos below is a strictly a guess. These efforts will be incorportated into the new cemetery books planned by the society.
