Near the southeastern corner of Adams Township in N.E. Cass County; approximately 500 feet slightly-south-of DUE-WEST of the large two-story more-than-a-century-old "Bliss Mansion-House" a quite sturdy and noteworthy brick structure now owned and occupied [November 18, 1941] by W. B. Eikenberry; and about 180 feet [60 yards] north of [and up an incline from] the Hoovers-to-Mexico road, which today is an unpaved, winding, elbowing county-highway. This burial-place, marked by a lone tree [13 or 14 inches in trunk diameter], is on the grassy brink of Eel River Valley's high north terrace-rim, and nearly 200 ft. east of the steep drop into the valley (or hollow) of a northern [spring-fed] tributary (of Eel River), formerly known as "Bliss Creek."

Burial-place is near N.E. corner of S.W. 1/4 of S.W. 1/4 of N.E. 1/4 fractional N.E. 1/4 of fractional Section 3 of T. 27N, R. 3E, 2 Indiana P.M., and is plainly shown on Skinner's 1862 map of Cass County, though apparently not on Kingman Bros.' 1878 map nor any subsequent maps.





The map location is approximate.



Indiana Cemetery Locations, Volume 4, published by the Indiana Genealogical Society (April 2009), gives the primary cemetery name as Bliss Cemetery.

The cemetery is listed in the Cemetery and Burial Grounds Registry of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and in the State Historical Architectural and Archaeological Research Database (SHAARD) with Cemetery Record Number CR-09-96 (Bliss Family).
