The 19 acre cemetery, established in 1864 and located at the north edge of Celina west of U.S. 127, in Mercer County, had been under private management for more than a century. Due to a lack of funds the cemetery association dissolved and the city of Celina accepted ownership on December 31, 2013. The city's duties as cemetery operators include mowing, tree trimming, removal of dead trees, maintaining clear cemetery paths and selling and digging grave lots. The city will not be responsible for maintaining headstones, which are private property.
