Taylor of Xenia, Ohio undertook a volunteer project at assisting Townships with a comprehensive listing of burials in our Greene County Cemeteries. In the 1970's the Data was updated by several volunteers. In 2006 all burials from 1972 thru 2006 was provided by Powers Funeral Home in Jamestown, Ohio and the data was included in the Database. The following cemetery database pages were collected from researchers who visited the many cemeteries in Greene County and transcribed the tombstone markings, then they published a record of the cemeteries in Book form. I have taken their data along with other source documents such as funeral home records, and included all the cemeteries I have a record of into a Database. I am also updating the data from obituaries published in the Xenia Gazette. I would like to thank Martha Hollingsworth of Bowersville, Ohio and Katherine Taylor of Xenia, Ohio and Jeff Powers of Powers funeral home, Jamestown, Ohio for furnishing most of the data. ************************************************ OLD AND CURRENT GREENE COUNTY CEMETERIES ************************************************ BATH TOWNSHIP BYRON CEMETERY: Trebein Road, Fairborn, Oh FAIRFIELD CEMETERY: Located on Rt. 444 and Clover St. near Wright Patterson AFB, Fairborn, Oh HUFFERSVILLE SB,T2,RS.
