This cemetery is located on the east side of the Medina First Methodist
Church. It dates before the church or even the town was established(circa
1873).  It has been called the Oliver Cemetery in some old histories.  The
original recording from Mrs. Annie Laurie James. I recently checked the stones
for accuracy.
