Add PhotosAlso known as Hering Cemetery it is located on the original Hering Farm in Beavercreek Township slightly southwest of what was Howell's Apple Orchard in 1987 (earlier it was King's Orchard and more recently Harshman's Orchard), Beaver Valley Road, Beavercreek, Greene County, Ohio.
On October 17, 1987, local author Arthur R. Kilner, "Greene County Past & Present", took 8 photographs of the remaining stones in the cemetery, which was located in the middle of woodsy property belonging to Mr. Howell of Howell's Apple Orchard. These photos were donated to the Greene County Historical Society.
On August 29, 1999, Mr. Kilner attempted to visit the cemetery and found that a housing development had been built over the cemetery. Research revealed that the burials were not reinterred elsewhere, however, the builders placed steel stakes below the ground marking the four corners of the cemetery of what is now a residence at 2366 Vantage Point Court, Beavercreek, Greene County, Ohio. An additional photo was taken of the front yard of the residence and this was also donated to the Historical Society.
These statements are excerpts from Mr. Kilner's correspondence to Joan Baxter of the Greene County Historical Society dated September 5, 1999, and September 8, 1999.
