The following is what I found on my trip to Pickaway County, Ohio in April, 2003:

First I went in search of the gravesites for Alexander Grindle, son of J. & S. Grindle who died Nov. 24, 1844 and  Sarah Elenor Haller, daughter of Isaac C. & Matilda Haller who died Oct. 28, 1857 age 5 y 5m 26d.

They were buried in the old Christian Cemetery in Williamsport, Deercreek Twp., Pickaway Co., Ohio.

The first picture is of one part of the cemetery on Water Street 1/10th of a mile North of U.S. Route 22.

The next picture is of the same cemetery which is separated by a small ditch like area right next to the part pictured above.

I couldn't find the stones for them but the cemetery is very old and some stones are broken and even missing.  Some may have fallen down the bank towards the waterway that is down the hill behind the cemetery.

After I left Deercreek, I headed for Five Points in Monroe Township, Pickaway Co., Ohio to find the family gravesites there.

I only had time to go to the old Dunlap Farm where the graves of Sibila __, Charles C. Grindle, Christiana Grindle, William Haller, Wybilla Haller, Sarah Haller and Sophia C. Grindle were buried.

Below is a picture of the Massive Brick home on the Old Dunlap Farm
There are so many trees that is was difficult to get a good picture of it from the road.
The home was very ornate and beautiful.

Below is a view of the farm from where the gate was that led to the cemetery hill.

When I got to the farm, I went to the house and a lady answered the door.  I asked her if I could go see the graves of my grandparents and she agreed, without hesitation, to allow me on the property to see them.  Before she would take me there she gave me a warning (in so many words) that what I would find would not be pleasant.  She said that they had put a fence around the graves but her cattle had knocked it down and trampled the stones and so they were broken.  I asked her why they didn't put up another fence and she said that it was the township's responsibility, not her family's to take care of the graves. 

Below is the gate and and you can see in the background is a hill on the right.  That is where the cemetery is.

She took me to the site, which was approximately one mile from the house, on her four wheeler vehicle.  She told me that I would have to walk back to my car and make sure that the gate was secured when I left.  I said that would be no problem.  She walked me up the hill and this is what I found was the grave sites in deplorable condition.  All of the stones were broken in several pieces except one.  It was horrible.  Just a note....  I was told by other residents of the area that some farmers have actually plowed under old cemeteries and planted their crops over them.  I guess that makes us lucky?

The following picture shows the graves of William Haller (left), Sybilla, wife of Wm. Haller died Mar. 2_? 1812, Aged _5_ ys 2mo 5 ds and Sarah, wife of Henry Haller died Nov. 25, 1843 Aged 34 ys 15 ds.  There are small stones beyond William and Sybilla with initials W.H. & S.H.

Sarah's stone is behind the tree on the right.

The next picture is of the only stone that is still in one piece and that is the stone of Sophia C. Grindle, dau. of J. & S. Grindle, died Sep 1, 1860, aged __ ys 3 ms 27? ds.  it is located down the hill a little from the Haller graves.

Next is a view of Sophia Grindle's stone..

Next is a layout of all the graves...

Pictured below is
Sarah
wife of
Henry Haller
DIED
November 25, 1843
Aged 84 y's & 15 d's

Top of Sarah's stone reads:  "Remember in ___ thy __day of ____ youth"

Middle of Sarah's stone

I decided to put the stones together as best I could...

Pictured below is the Top of stone broken off base is in 3 pieces:
Sybilla
wife of
Wm. HALLER
DIED

Next, Sybilla's stone - middle part:

 Next is a footstone that was at the foot of Sybilla Haller's grave.
It was broken off it's base.

Next is the three pieces of William Haller's stone....

Next is the top of William Haller's stone...

The next footstone was at the foot of William Haller's grave.

Next is Sibila Grindle who was a twin to Mary Ellen Grindle and daughters of Joseph Angus Grindle and Sophia (Haller) Grindle.
The stone needs to be read again for accuracy.  In this picture it looks like she has a middle initial and the name Haller is below your given name.

Next is Christiana Grindle's stone.
If you look closely to the right of it, you will see cattle droppings as the cattle are the reason the stones are all broken in the first place.

Next is the stone for Charles C. Grindle
