This cemetery is behind the Old Grantville School. Once called Glanton Elementary School. Now the building houses the Grantville City Hall, Police Department and the Senior Center. The Cemetery has three Civil War Soldiers buried here.
Scott Jackson cleaned it about 5 years ago and found some stones buried in one of the graves. Then 2 years later, Patrick Dubber and friends cleaned it as part of his Boy Scout Eagle Project. It fell into dissaray again, and the Veterans group of Grantville cleaned it up.

It seems as if the City of Grantville would keep it clean because it is on city property and they cut the grass behind the schoool all the way up the hill to the cemetery, but did not keep the cemetery clean.

June 9, 2009 Went to the cem and it now has a fence around it, put there by the city of Grantville. Thank you!!!!!
But I guess I'll have to learn how to use the weed eater.
