Tippecanoe Township,
Carroll County, Indiana
Located between Monticello and Delphi, off Carroll County Road 600 North, just under 3 miles North of
the U.S. 421 and Indiana State Road 18 Junction. The Cemetery is in a wooded area on PRIVATE PROPERTY,
approximately 200 Ft. off of the North Side of 600 N. There is a State Game Reserve down the hill
and on the opposite side of the road, where you can park. Walk up the hill (on the road), and take a left into the woods
at the hills crest. Walk straight approximately 200 ft, looking for the iron fencing encompassing the cemetery.
The Cemetery can be very difficult to find through the dense follage in the summertime. Spring and Autum would
be the best time to search for the Cemetery. This Cemetery is currently FOR SALE --June, 2001
Warning!!! Let me reiterate, the cemetery is located on PRIVATE PROPERTY
I am not the land owner, do not know the land owner, and this web site should not be construded as permission
