The Titsworth Farm Cemetery of Washington Township, Union County, Ohio

The History of Union County, published in 1883 by the Beers Company, mentions another lost Union County cemetery.  The Titsworth Cemetery was located on the Lemeul Titsworth Farm.  It is believed to have been located on the Rocky Fork of Rush Creek.  The 1883 account declares that the cemetery was already in disrepair.  It is believed to have been abandoned as early as the 1850s.  Bodies were subsequently removed to other cemeteries.  The bodies that remained were said to have washed away by the erosion of the creek bank.
