Surname: BOTKIN I'm hoping for some help or advise on information on Leatherwood Creek Cemetery in Shelby Co. From what I understand it is in Greene Township and may have been founded by the Lockard Family. One of my great+grandfathers Charles Botkin died in Shelby Co. in 1820 and his Will is the first one recorded in Will Book A. We have been told he is buried there but a recent visit by a cousin living in Champaign Co. did not locate a tombstone. The cemetery may be on private property and isn't mentioned on the Shelby Co. web site list of cemeteries at all. The cemetery was found with many tombstones fallen over and the grass to tall to navigate easily. Some of Charles children were located and some Lockard names were also included. One of Charles sons, John, married Mary Lockard so this strengthens the reports that Charles himself may be there. Does anyone know where I might be able to obtain a list of names buried in this cemetery? Are there funeral home records for 1820 that I could pursue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. FYI. This Botkin group is not related to the founder of Botkins, OH. I would be delighted to share my files with anyone interested. Mark Allen
