Also Known as Centerville Cemetery The Swanton Cemetery is located in south Swanton, oh the west side of County Road 1-1, south of US Alternate 20. (SE ½ Sec 12, T7N R4E) History: The Swanton Cemetery is situated on land deeded to F.H. Richardson in 1834. The old part of the cemetery, known as the Centerville burial ground, was so called for the early settlement by the same name located at the four corners north of the cemetery. According to tradition a part of this section once was an Indian burial ground. In 1842 the cemetery was transferred to the township trustees. Since that time the site has been expanded to meet community needs.
