The cemetery is located on both sides of Jamestown Road at its intersection with Cemetery Avenue about 0.4 miles northeast of its intersection with Port William Road (County Road 5). The original cemetery, referred to as the Port William Cemetery, was established in 1830 and is now located in the extreme northwestern corner of the eastern part of the cemetery, recently named the "New Maple Grove Cemetery' by the Township sometime after 2002. Prior to 1978 and up to 2002 the whole cemetery was named The Maple Grove Cemetery. The part that still has that name is the section located west of the Jamestown Road. It contains mostly 1900 to 1950 burials. The New Maple Grove Cemetery starts around 1950 and continues to present. The original "Port William Cemetery" contains the earliest to turn of the century burials. However, there are no absolute lines between the three, i.e., there are a few post 1900 burials in the original section and a few pre-1900 burials in the Maple Grove Cemetery as well as more recent ones.

The cemetery is located in Liberty Township, Clinton County, Ohio, and is # 1980 (Maple Grove Cemetery / Port William Cemetery) in "Ohio Cemeteries 1803-2003", compiled by the Ohio Genealogical Society.
