See that rise there? See that area that does not have soybeans planted in it? That is about where Worthington Cemetery is located.
Thank you to the farmer who left this area unplanted this year. We were notified last week that our application for an Ohio historic marker for Worthington Cemetery has been APPROVED! This part of our local history will be marked and remembered. Those buried there, although not known by name, will be remembered as living, working and being part of a community in this rural area. Archibald Worthington will be known for dedicating a part of his land to hold these individuals in dignity and restful peace.
Our community came together for a great purpose and I know will continue to volunteer time and efforts for projects like this.
