ADCOCK-COCHRAN-MT HOPE CEMETERY, Jackson Twp., Perry County, Ohio. Comments: This is a transcription of the stones in a cemetery I found about 15 yrs. ago in the middle of a woods in Jackson Twp., Perry Co., Ohio. It is not on (or even near) a road or house. I happened on it while bird hunting and went back later to copy this down. I haven't been there since. The scan is a copy of the 1859 Plat record for Jackson Twp. I have marked on it about where I think it (the cemetery) is. The cemetery is not listed on this or the 1875 plat maps nor is it mentioned in any of the "lists" of cemeteries that I've seen about Perry Co. On the scan you will see many of the same surnames found in the cemetery and even one of those buried there (Simon Bell). So my guess is that it is a "family" cemetery that has long since been forgotten. The initials at the end were actually engraved on small individual stones. I figured they must be children. Updated comments: I found the following reference in a copy of a book called "Ohio Cemeteries", published by OGS in 1978. There is a listing in there for a cemetery called the ADCOCK-COCHRAN-MT HOPE CEMETERY in S26 of Jackson Twp. that says it is in a heavily wooded area, 1/3 mi. sw from deadend of TR238. We are assuming that this is the correct name for the cemetery transcribed below. Bell Daniel Son of Simon & Susannah Bell "March 25, 1839 11 Yrs. 4 Mos. 9 Dys."
