Hallford Family Cemetery listings

This cemetery is located east of Clarksburg on Old 12 Hwy (now called Clarksburg Road). The inscriptions were originally read by Mr Ed Sommerhauser and Mr and Mrs F J Ketterlin in 1970. Alan Sparks re-inventoried the cemetery in May 2000.

In May 2000, the cemetery had a good fence but many hardwood trees and buck brush amongst the stones. Spring 2005 saw much of the surrounding land, on both sides of the road, cleared of trees and brush. Additional work has been accomplished on this cemetery. In late 2005 the cemetery was cleaned, brush cleared and new barbed wire fence erected.

According to the Recordings of Willow Fork and Moreau Township Cemeteries: Ed Bybee, 90 yrs old in 1970, said that during the Civil War three men were killed near this cemetery and buried here in unmarked graves. Also, the Siegenthaler log house across the road was built by Jessee Hallford in 1826. (This log house no longer stands across the road. It was moved sometime between 1970 and 2000.)
