Welcome to Potterstown Cemetery

Weston Township, Wood County, Ohio


Welcome to Potterstown, Ohio, or at least what's left of the town. Potterstown was burned to the ground a long time ago, most likely in the late 1800's as that's about the latest any headstone records. Nowadays the cemetery is maintained by the Weston Township trustees.



The entrance and parking are a little ways off from the cemetery itself and parking coordinates are in the area of N41 21.080 W083 52.048. Stay along the 'road' to get to the cemetery, no need to walk through any fields. You'll be looking for a decent sized Lock n Lock at the edge of the cemetery. ***The SQ in the cache name above signifies Spirit Quest, a project by the Northwest Ohio Geocachers to distinguish those caches that are set in cemeteries or memorial gardens.
