The Cemeteries at Unionville Center, Ohio

There are two cemeteries on the edge of Unionville Center.  The older cemetery was originally called the Sager Graveyard.  The first burials in this cemetery date to around 1813.  This cemetery is adjacent to the Unionville Center United Methodist Church.  It is on land that was donated to the community by the pioneer Sager family.  There are many burials from this family here.  Today this cemetery is cared for by the Darby Township Trustees.  The cemetery is now called the Darby Township Cemetery and is managed as a part of the second Unionville Cemetery.

The second cemetery is just a cross a small stream.  This cemetery was started when room ran out in the first cemetery.  This land, along with the land between the two sections, was purchased in 1916 from Lula Robinson for $1500.  The land between the two sections was later sold to Roy G. Scheiderer.  This new section of the cemetery has always been under the control of Darby Township.
