The location and early history of the Johnston Farm and the work of Colonel John Johnston makes the Johnston Cemetery an important source for family researchers and genealogists. Early settlers to Washington Township and southern Shelby County were buried there.
On January 20, 1812, a joint deed was signed by John and Rachel Johnston and Richard and Sarah Winans, for a little more than two acres of their adjoining lands. This parcel of ground was situated where the Johnston Cemetery is located and was to be used for the Methodist Meeting House and Burial Grounds and also for a school house.
Possibly the first burial was that of Colonel Johnston
