Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/In/Brown/725 Surname: ------------------------- There are two ZION Cemeteries and a lot of people tend to get them confused. 1.) ZION CHURCH CEMETERY, located in Hamblen Township, Brown County, Indiana 2.) MT. ZION CEMETERY, located in Van Buren Township, Brown County, Indiana. ZION CHURCH CEMETERY Alternate Name: Mt. Zion Cemetery (causing confusion in public records with Mt. Zion Cemetery in Van Buren Township) Recorded: July 28, 1973 Location: Section 25; Township 10 North; Range 3 East. One half mile north from south end of Three Notch Road, on the east side of that road. There are a number of unmarked graves and some marked only by uninscribed stones. MT. ZION CEMETERY Recored: December 1, 1971. Undated through 1975 Location: Southwest corner of Section 15; and Northwest corner of Section 22; Township 8 North; Range 3 East. Situated on a hill on the East side of, and adjacent to, State Road 135. It is 2 miles Southwest of Stone Head and 2-1/4 miles Northeast of Story. One of Van Buren Township's largest and oldest Cemeteries with many unmarked graves and graves marked by fieldstones. A frame church, now abandoned (1976), stands at the top of the hill with the Cemetery adjacent on the South and West. The church bears the sign "Mt. Zion New Light Church - Since 1878" An earlier log church burned.
