Elizabeth Township Historical Society has a wonderful and informative new book available for sale! The book is entitled, The Cemeteries of the Elizabeth Township Miami County, Ohio Historic District. It was written by Sharon Ochs Maingi, a trustee of the historical society. Photos, maps, a list of known burials and their location, and a transcription of the dates of death, birth or age are included for the following cemeteries: Davis, Gearheart, Hart, Kyle, Mann, McKendree, Winters, Casstown (Elizabeth Township Sections A-D), Knoop, and Saylor.

In addition, there is a section about all known war Veterans buried in these cemeteries from the Revolutionary War to the Vietnam War which includes their service unit and rank. Some photos of Civil War Veterans, the new military headstones received from the Veterans Administration and grave marking ceremonies are also featured.

The society is very grateful to Mrs. Maingi for her hard work and dedication over the course of many years in preserving the history of Elizabeth Township’s cemeteries and in honoring our Veterans.

You can purchase your copy of the book for $30 at the office window at the Elizabeth Township Community Center.
