The Damascus, Ohio is located in Columbiana and Mahoning County Ohio with State Route 62 dividing the two counties and the village. The cemetery is situated next to the Upper Springfield Friends Meeting House. (Guernsey & Wilburite Friends) The original Methodist was also located near the cemetery. About 2001 the Friends Church Cemetery was relocated from 28857 Walnut Street, Damascus to the Damascus Cemetery on Valley Rd due to an expansion project. It is my understanding that a cemetery in Westville, Ohio for African-Americans was also relocated to this cemetery. This does need to be confirmed. Many of the older stones are missing or illegible in the older part of the cemetery. This makes identification difficult.
