This old burial ground is located in Section #10 in Stony Creek Township on the Wilbur Wright Road about two miles north of Mooreland, Henry County, IN. It has not been used for burials in many years.    This burial ground was started by John Hodgson who first purchased this land on 8 Sep 1823 after coming here from North Carolina. The spelling of the name Hodson is used both ways here, but they are all related. This cemetery was used as a neighborhood burial ground during the early 1800s up until the Mooreland cemetery opened in the 1890s. In 1898 a rumor was started that when Moses Hodson died his wealth was buried with him. This caused the cemetery to be nearly destroyed by treasure hunters digging for the treasure, which was never located. Is it still there?    There are quite a few unmarked burials, and others marked only by fieldstones in this cemetery. It receives very little care, other than being mowed several times a year.    Many stones are down and need to be reset. We have been in several times to cut and trim the weeds. Blue River Middle School history students adopted this cemetery as a project in 2003 for clean-up and had it looking good for awhile, but it is getting back to the overgrown state that it used to be in.
