This cemetery is located on the south side of Cleveland Street, 6/8 mile east of Town Hall [in Lorain County, Ohio]. It is the first cemetery in Amherst and the oldest stone is that of Georgiana B. Town, who died May 1, 1819. In 1849, John and Esther Nelson sold 76 square rods in Lot #23 to the Amherst Township Trustees. This contained all of the cemetery except that known as the old burying ground which bounds it on the west.
