Please take your time - walk around, visit with the past. The caches are easy to find. Please respect where you are.
Found this large cemetery while browsing Google maps. Follow the driveway to the cemetery and soon you will see the large metal gates with the name "Zion Hill Cemetery" on them. The entire cemetery was transcribed in 1995 and there was about 80 stones. After visiting the cemetery today I believe there must have been more stones added as there appears to be more than 80.
The cemetery was made for a nearby church. Zion Hill Methodist Church, built in 1862.
In 1865 the village was located on the Lot 10, Con 8 in Thurlow Township and was called Wilsonburg with 100 people. The cemetery is located near the church lot.
