Washington Court House was founded in 1810 by American Revolutionary War Veterans from Virginia. The Old Washington Cemetery was established the same year. When the railroads came, the cemetery was reduced in size to one half, with those removed buried in the New Washington Cemetery. Approximately one hundred and twelve remain. The earliest settlers of the county are buried in this small cemetery. The names are reflected throughout the city and county.
