Pickaway County OhArchives Cemeteries.....Chester Peters aka The Tallman Cemetery - Complete Survey ************************************************ Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm http://www.usgwarchives.net/oh/ohfiles.htm ************************************************ File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by: Melanie Mann nigmal.melanie@gmail.com April 21, 2008, 8:01 pm Abstracted By: Melanie Mann This small cemetery sits atop a knoll approximately 0.1 miles west of State Route 674 and approximately 0.1 mile south of Ashville Fairfield Road (C-42). The cemetery had been unkempt, but was restored by Gerald Baker Tallman. It was dedicated as the Tallman Cemetery after his restoration. It is now fenced, stones have been reset and some reinforced, and the cemetery is well cared for. There are some very old stones here. The view from the hilltop is impressive, and the city of Columbus can be seen to the northwest. If you are going to visit, be prepared for the hike. The hill is steeper than it might seem. When I visited the cemetery on April 21, there were 31 markers, not all of them legible. The listing here combines the markers I was able to view compared to the listing done by Paul Mayberry for the Pickaway County Genealogy Society in 1999. Mr. Mayberry indicated in his report if the gravestone was recorded by the DAR in their 1936 project Gravestones of Pickaway County. Where that information applies, I have so indicated per Mayberry's notation.
