Alton, Ohio

Alton Methodist Episcopal Cemetery is a tiny little cemetery located in the small town of Alton, Ohio. It is just west of I-270 in Columbus on Broad St/US-40/National Road. The cemetery is behind a small church that used to house the Alton Methodist Episcopal congregation.

This cemetery is no longer active and was recently restored as a part of Project Flag, a cemetery restoration program in central Ohio. A few of the markers have been replaced and some restored. You can see numerous sunken spots throughout the grounds. The stones have pretty much been set up in a line and are most likely not on their original plots.

I took these shots at dusk, so they are a bit on the dark side. I enhanced the brightness on one or two to help bring out detail.
