Clarks Corners Cemetery located on Furnace Road

CONNEAUT, OHIO HISTORY & GENEALOGY

CLARKS CORNERS CEMETERY aka Old Furnace Road Cemetery located on Furnace Road, Conneaut, Ohio This cemetery is very dilapidated having been badly vandalized and not taken care of. It appears that someone has recently gone in and cut down saplings and either weed whacked or brush hogged it. Not a pretty sight. If anyone finds that they need to go into this cemetery, please be very careful as there are short tree stumps everywhere and they are not very big in diameter and easy to trip over. I have taken some pictures of stones that I knew my camera could handle. The others can be found in the cemetery index that will be put here in the near future. ~ Sharon Wick
