Blizzard Cemetery

alternate name(s):
township: Tippecanoe
Location: on private land off Springboro Rd. (county line) in Sec. 9


This is a pioneer cemetery (earliest grave circa 1835) that is in deplorable condition.

My husband and I went to the cemetery about five years ago after finally figuring out who owned the land. The cemetery is overgrown and nearly all the stones are down—and we haven’t been back there since our one visit
