About This Resource:
Green Hill Cemetery is located in Churchville on Green Hill Lane just off of
Route 42 (Buffalo Gap Highway). The cemetery is located about 3/4 mile down the road on the left side.
381247N 0790955W. This is the largest cemetery in Churchville and is still in use today. The cemetery
itself is in nice condition and has approximately 2000 people interred. The oldest section is just inside
the main entrance to the right side. Most of the newer burials are in the rear and to the right of the
entrance, however there is still a lot of unused space that will keep this as a place for future burials.
One interesting tombstone is that of a World War I soldier in a full army uniform.
The cemetery was read and imaged in August and September 2005. The database and associated images are the copyrighted work of William E. Wilson, Jr. who generously supplied them to the Allen County Public Library for distribution to individual genealogical researchers.
About Searching This Resource:
The database doesn't store the surname separately from the first name,
so you'll have to enter your search like this:
The search engine will try to be as flexible as possible. Therefore, if Use Fuzzy Search is
set to Yes (which it is by default), the search engine will
match partial names. If you search for Smith, the engine will find
anything that has Smith in it. It would find Smith, Adam, Smithson, Ted, etc.
If you set Use Fuzzy Search to No, then searching for Smith, Adam will
only find entries whose name is exactly Smith, Adam. It will not find Smith, Adam T.
Please use the fields below to refine your search. Note that while none of
the fields are mandatory, you'll get better results if you refine your search.
Also, to keep the system running smoothly, the search will return a maximum of 1000 items.
