This little family burial grounds was started by the John Pressel family. John and his brother Joel came to Henry County from Montgomery Co. Ohio in early 1824 and purchased land adjoining each other in Liberty Township, Joel in section #35 and John in section #34. The Wilbur Wright Road separates the two properties. This burial ground is located at about 3400 South on the Wilbur Wright Road.
The landowner keeps the little plot mowed and cleared of rank vegetation and such.
A veteran of the War of 1812, Hiram Perry, is buried in this little cemetery.
