Uniontown Cemetery

Uniontown Cemetery

Uniontown Cemetery is located in the southeast quarter of Section 19 in Salem Township. As you are going west out of Yates City on Route 8, turn left on 1900E and go south until you arrive at Bear School Rd. The cemetery is alongside the road on your right. Lovely area!

Digital tombstone pictures of the names listed below are available upon request.
