"Old Centerville Cemetery"

The first recorded meeting of the Sugar Creek Baptists (now
Centerville Baptist Church) was November 2, 1799. In 1802,
property was purchased from Aaron Nutt and by 1803, a meeting
house was erected on the west side of the cemetery. Early
residents traveled to the church on trails which were blazed
through the wilderness from settlements five miles away. On
July 4, 1807, the Church Trustees appointed Benjamin Robbins and
Whitely Hatfield "to lay off a burial ground in proper manner."
Additions to the cemetery continued until 1865, which extended
the cemetery to the present boundaries. Many early settlers
including veterans of the Revolutionary and other wars, are
interred here. The cemetery is currently maintained by
Washington Township.
