Shumard Cemetery
(Stonelick Twp.)
Off Sumner Road
Batavia, OH 45103 USA
Inactive
 
Take St. Rt. 131 out of Milford towards Newtonsville.  Turn right on Belfast-Owensville Road.  Turn left on Bergen Road.  Turn left on Weaver Road.  Turn left on Sumner Road.
The cemetery is located on private property – owners: Edward Packer and Jean Ashley.  It is located to the right - of end of Sumner Road - in the woods.  After entering the woods it is left of the creek on a beautiful ridge- covered with ground cover.  There is a grass-stone lane driveway that ends where the woods begin. Not easy access.
 
Pictures and additional inscriptions taken by Pamela Smith, CCGS member, on October 1, 2006.  Jean Ashley guided me to the site and helped me find the hidden graves.  I was very grateful for her help.  This is a beautiful location – ground cover fills the ridge – no poison ivy?  There are many graves here as there were many, many footstones.
