Location:  On the North side of Medina Road (RT 18), between N. Hametown Road and Harmony Hills Dr.

Contact:  Bath Township Trustees

Established:  About 1833

History:  Of the five cemeteries in Bath Township, this is the only one for which no burial records are known to exist. The cemetery was originally the private burial ground of the Elisha Miller family and was known simply as Miller Cemetery. Eventually, its care was transferred to Bath Township. Nearly invisible from the nearby Route 18, it is interesting to note that when this highway was widened some years back, it was given a gentle curve to avoid disturbing the small cemetery.
