Location: 2 miles north of Wire road, S-18-19, on S-18-83 off road about 100 yards to the left.

History: We have been told that at one time a Schoolhouse and probably a Church stood in this area, nevertheless, only one tombstone remains in the cemetery, which is that of a John Shieder who was the grandfather of Mr. Murray Shieder. Some Harbesons were buried there. Above information from Mr. Marion F. Rumph and his Mother, Mrs. Rumph. Rebecca R. Shieder who was born Sept. 6, 1826 and died Feb. 8, 1899 was the sife of John Shieder; however, she is buried in Utsey Cemetery. We know that this graveyard was founded in 1887, but believe that enterments were much earlier. Doris Shieder Hutto Reported by: Atty. J. Walter Patrick and Mr. Marion F. Rumph. Mr. Keith Walters searched for this Cemetery several times.
