Locust Grove German Baptist Cemetery

Liberty Township - Est: 1830s

   This cemetery is located in the farthermost SE corner of Henry County at the intersection of CR 400 South and CR 950 East in section #32 Liberty Township, Henry County, IN.
   The Locust Grove Baptist church was at one time a branch of the "White Branch" German Baptist church of Hagerstown that was organized in 1824. Today it is known as the Church of The Brethren and is still a branch of the Hagerstown church
   Some of the burials here are Wayne County residents but most are Henry County. There have been several recent burials in this cemetery and it is still in use with room for many more burials. The neighborhood and church seem to still be very active with several Amish families living in the neighborhood. A new Amish schoolhouse was just finished recently about a half mile north of the church on CR900E.
   The cemetery is in great condition and is maintained by the church and a new fence has been installed.
   Tom Hamm along with the Parkview Junior High School History Club, New Castle, IN originally recorded this cemetery in the early 1970s. The cemetery was completely re-recorded by myself in July of this year 2005 with an additional 121 burials added to the total burials of 330 in the cemetery.
