On September 11, 1879 the weather was fine. A large congregation was present at the laying of the cornerstone of the German Evangelical Protestant Church of Chili. The services were in the German language.

The doors were closed in 1947 due to dwindling membership.

The 100th anniversary of the building was held September 25, 1979.

On May 4, 2006 the King Post Beam broke loose causing devastation to the building and the building was demolished.

A memorial stone was placed in December 2013, by a descendent of the Huprich, Lorenz, Scherer family, in memory of those 29 members who contributed to the building of the church.

The Cemetery is located across from a church and at the intersection of CR 10 and CR 236 and TR 88 in Crawford Township Coshocton County Ohio.

The cemetery is located in Crawford Township, Coshocton County, Ohio, and is # 2218 (Crossroads Church Cemetery) in "Ohio Cemeteries 1803-2003", compiled by the Ohio Genealogical Society.
