GPS Coordinates: Latitude: 39.34893, Longitude: -86.33612
We visited this cemetery on October 9, 2015. It is located on East Mahalasville Road next to Mount Zion Separate Baptist Church. There are just under 500 interments at this cemetery and I believe that it is still in use as there were many newer graves here. It is well taken care. I am not sure as to when this cemetery or church was established as I didn't see any signs the day that we were there.
