Gravestone Photographs
Hill Road Methodist Cemetery, AKA Methodist Hill Cemetery, aka Reynoldsburg Cemetery, is located on Waggoner Road about ½ block north of Main Street in Reynoldsburg. There are many stones that are too weather worn to read and many broken stones. It is classified as an abandoned cemetery. We will be photographing all the gravestones over time.

NOTE: All information enclosed by brackets ( [ ] ) has been taken from a 1940 reading of the cemetery and found in Franklin County, Ohio Cemeteries, volume 3, Jefferson & Truro Townships, compiled by the Franklin County Genealogical Society (Columbus 1981), pages 41-45; and from volume 11, Corrections & Addenda (Columbus 1997), pages 120-125.
A word of caution seems advisable here as we found several stones that didn't appear in either volume mentioned above, and in some cases we found that the published information did not agree with the inscriptions on the stones. When there was a discrepancy between published information and the inscriptions I have used only the information appearing on the stone.
