New Haven Cemetery	Union Cemetery

New Haven Cemetery, New Haven Township

The first New Haven Cemetery is located on S.R. 61 & Skinner Road between New Haven and Plymouth, S1,T1, R23 (just south of Sandusky). It was apparently in use from 1818 until 1948. As it filled, Maple Grove Cemetery was developed on the opposite side of State Route 61 across the from the old cemetery.

Throughout the years this cemetery has been damaged by animals and by a tornado. As many stones as possible have been repaired.

ROW 1: STONE 38

George Beymer was the first recorded death in the newly formed community of New Haven.

At the corner, where we found the Beymer marker		George Beymer DIED 24 June 1817 AGED 42Ys 6Ms 19Ds ----- Christian, wife of Geo Beymer DIED 1 Jun 1849 AGED 78 years
The Beymer Marker in the condition we found it -- nearly totally covered with sod

The marker was originally upright, however, it now lays flat. We removed the sod in May 2002.
We had a foundation poured for the monument in 2003. It was needed to keep the mowers off of the fragile stone.	photos taken May 2002 and Nov 2003
