Cemetery History
This cemetery is situated in Section 17, (Northwest corner) of Deerfield Township, Warren County, Ohio. It was originally part of the John D. Hoff Farm (circa 1891), then the Dill Farm, next the R. Eugene King Farm (1961), and now is part of the King's Island (Paramount) Amusement Park. The term Dog Street may have come from the colloquial name of the school district, officially District #2 or Mound District. Another story relates that a 'dog leg' street led back to the cemetery. It has been largely untended full time since 1890.

Cemetery Transcriptions

In the fall of 2005, Larry W. Collins photographed the 52 extant tombstones for the Warren County Genealogical Society and contributed copies of them to this page. Additional photos were contributed by Jay G. Lamb and Arne H Trelvik. Unfortunately, about 19 stones found when the Warren County Genealogical Society read the cemetery in the 1980s are no longer present. If you have any older photos of any of these missing stones, please consider donating a copy.
