Bannon Cemetery in Leesburg Township, Union County, Ohio

The Bannon (Brannon) Cemetery is yet another of Union County's neglected cemeteries.  It is a shame that the Union County Chapter of the Ohio Genealogical Society has not done anything to help maintain or repair this graveyard.  This cemetery started as a small family burial ground for the Brannon family.  It has also been known as the Bokes Creek Cemetery.  This desolate burial ground is located on the south bank of Bokes Creek, just north of the State Route 347 and White Stone Road intersection.  This graveyard is on private property, so permission must be obtained from the landowner before visiting this site.
