Pleasant Hill Cemetery
(Marion Co, Pike Twp)

GENERAL CONDITION:  This is a beautiful, very well maintained cemetery, with nice even rows and a driveway that encircles 3 sides of the cemetery.  The main road runs along the 4th side.  It contains approximately 700 stones and appears to still be active.  There are some broken and worn stones, but they are minimal.  As a point of interest, there is a Revolutionary War soldier buried in this cemetery and there is a historical plaque erected in his memory. (1997)
