ZINK CEMETERY
AKA  BUTTERS CEMETERY
BRUSHCREEK TOWNSHIP, HIGHLAND COUNTY, OHIO

>From CEMETERY INSCRIPTIONS OF HIGHLAND COUNTY, OHIO,
Compiled by David N. McBride and Jane N. McBride


George Williams and Mary (formerly Mary Zink), his wife conveyed to 
Daniel M. Butters 163 acres "with this exception that said George 
Williams and Mary has wife reserves their interest as the heirs of 
the Estate of Daniel Zink in the grave yard on the aforesaid premises, 
and being east of the dwelling house on the south line of the last 
call, said grave yard to be two and a half poles square."  Daniel 
Zink, who owned the farm on which it is situated for many years 
before the Butters family, was the father of Catharine Butters.  
Residents of the vicinity call this the Butters Cemetery for the 
reason that the farm was owned by the Butters family for years after 
Daniel Zink died.

Listing includes all the stones.
