New Harmony Cemetery

Location: Indian Twp - T52N - at the New Harmony Church just off State Road V. 
Directions: Hwy 54 West of Curryville take a left on State Road M to Pike 454 and make a right turn. 
Notes: The New Harmony Cemetery Association was organized in 1946. There is no record of when they began using the Christian Church Cemetery. It does state in some of the original minutes that when the Church was first organized (1843) they took people to bury in the Kilby Cemetery. Records also state that in 1859 the trustees bought two acres of land from B. G. and Rachel Jane McPike. There is information that says J. B. Mitchell gave some land for the cemetery, then in 1957 the Herbert Gourleys donated additional land to the Cemetery association.
