Adams County Cemeteries

Adams County has numerous cemeteries, ranging in size from large community ones in West Union and Manchester, to small, family plots located on remote farms and alongside roadways. The Ohio GenWeb Archives has transcriptions for some of these cemeteries, and many years ago, the Adams County Genealogical Society published several books of cemetery transcriptions, dividing them up according to township. I'm not sure if these booklets are still available, but if they are, they are a valuable resource. I own two, one for Sprigg Township and the other for Tiffen Township.

 


Do you have some links or information on especially the small family plots that dot Adams County, that you would be willing to submit here? If so, please send them to me. If you have photos of tombstones, please submit them to the Adams County (USGenWeb) tombstone photo project at the link above. Transcriptions should go to the Adams County (USGenWeb Ohio) Tombstone Transcription Project.
