Located across the road from the present Asbury M. E. Church, Asubry cemetery is on the south side of Wheeler-Green Road east of State Route 31. When I phototgraphed the cemetery on October 19, 2009 I discovered that the description given in 1985 by those who read the cemetery on July 8, 1985 was as true today as it was then, "Most of the stones are down and many are tossed into the fence row or in piles here and there."--Union County Chapter Ohio Genealogical Society, compiler, Liberty~Paris~Taylor~Washington Townships Cemetery Records, (Marysville, Ohio 1986) The cemetery is located on land that was donated by Richard Dildine in about 1855. This page contains a complete photographic inventory of the cemetery. If you would like to have full sized, high resolution copies of any of the photographs, please write to with your request.

NOTE: Items that are underlined in black are the Webmaster's "best guess." Items found in brackets ( [ ] ) are either documented, i.e. death certificates, or were found in the published records.
