The cemetery is located not quite 1/4 mile north of Rt.40, on the west side
of North Germantown Road. It is a quite large cemetery. The record keeper
for the cemetery is Mel Gethers in Cambridge City (765-478-5818). He should
be able to give you the Section and Row information for the grave sites you
are seeking, although I have found that his records differ from reality in
some instances. Happy hinting!

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for information on the Zion Evangelical Lutheran Cemetery, and
possible gravestone photos. The cemetery is not listed on
findagrave.com
or under the Wayne County Genealogical Society website. But John,
Rosanna, and Mary J. Sutherland are all listed as being buried there
according to "Tombstone Inscriptions in Wayne County, Indiana" by Andrew
W. Young, Vol. III. Does anyone have any information on this cemetery?
Thanks,
Jan in Ohio

Hi Jan,
It is on Find a Grave under the name of Zion Lutheran Cemetery in East
Germantown,Wayne county Indiana. The Southerland's are listed on the site
but there are not any photos of their tombstones. My 3x great Uncle David
Rieser and his extended are buried there along with my 2x great uncle
George
Rieser. I have been to the cemetery and church and I have a few photos
that
I will try and e-mail to you.. Hope this helps.
Lois

It looks like you're back researching our Sutherland line again!
You may have seen this already since you mentioned 'Tombstone Inscriptions
in Wayne County Indiana by Andrew W. Young, but I wanted to send it in
case
it's something you don't already have. -Kay, FL
