Meigs County, Ohio #3 I have seen discussions about Chester Cemetery. I arranged to meet the secretary of the township board at the cemetery. She brought all the plat books, deeds, and ect. Unfortunately the earliest records are mostly missing. There is a stone inscribed KIMES, nothing more. It is about 2 ½’ x 3 ½’ there is no record as to is buried there. It could be one person, such as "Old" Jacob or it could be a family marker. There has been discussion of four unmarked graves. About 40-50 feet from the old stone are four 6"x 6" markers diagonally inscribed KIMES. They form a rectangle about 10’x15’. I was informed they are plot boundary markers. Again there is no record as to whom or how many are buried there. There is a stone inscribed Jacob, no dates. This Jacob served in the civil war and supposable marched in the G.A.R. parade in Washington in 1865. This is from a different time era than "Old" Jacob. There are other Kimes, but from later generations, both here in Chester and other cemeteries around the county. Some I personally checked but mostly I relied on records in the Meigs County Library and the Meigs Co. Historical Society. Both are staffed by very friendly and helpful personal.
