About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Per the "Ashland Eternal Acers' sponsored by "Ashland County Historical Society" (1942), the cemetery is an abandoned plot, 80 by 90 feet, on County Road 83 (now 2256), three tenths of a mile west of its junction with County Road 125 (now 775), Honey Creek Road. To reach the plot, it is necessary to cross a ditch and climb a fence. Of the 35 markers, only one remains erect. Woodchuck burrows are numerous, and the briars and wild vines are a tangled mass. A thick covering of myrtle makes of the flat markers illegible. Burial dates are from 1819 to 1908. The names include Atkinson, Burns, Hazlet, Heeston, Huston, Jenkins, Swearingen, Wright, Hill and North. Among the interments are those of two Civil War veterans. Although this burial ground is sometimes called the Methodist Cemetery, there is no record of the cemetery ever being owned by that denomination.

In 2011, the cemetery was described as being up a hill on the left side of a very long drive.

The cemetery is located in Vermillion Township, Ashland County, Ohio, and is # 353 (Methodist Cemetery / Shriver Cemetery) in "Ohio Cemeteries 1803-2003", compiled by the Ohio Genealogical Society.
