The Delphi Universalist Church Cemetery lies entirely within the New St. Joseph Cemetery at its west end along Covedale Avenue. This half-acre parcel was the site of the Delphi Universalist Church, which was started in 1838 and disbanded in 1872. Upon disbanding, the members donated the land to Buchtel College in Akron, Ohio, stipulating the college could never sell the land while it was used as a graveyard. The college became the University of Akron and in 1970 deeded the property to New St. Joseph Cemetery for $1. The cemetery association maintains the land and preserves the 29 graves of the congregation's deceased members that are located in the cemetery.



The Delphi Universalist Church Cemetery is a tree-covered area between section 22 and the N. W. Plat of Saint Joseph New Cemetery.
