Guilford Mennonite Cemetery (Blake Cemetery)
Blake, Medina County, Ohio

GPS: 41.048496, -81.832735

Builford Township

Contributed by Laurie Halliwell, Feb 08, 2009, last edited Apr 18, 2009 [laurielh@embarqmail.com]. Total records = 221.

To reach the cemetery from the community of Blake, drive west on Blake Road for .93 mile, turn right or north onto Guilford Road and continue just a short distance and the cemetery will be on the left or west side of the road.

This cemetery was established by the Guilford Mennonite Group shortly after the church was established in 1829. The church was moved in 1948 but the cemetery remains and is very well maintained.

I walked and read this cemetery in 1983 and have updated this transcription on Jan 29, 2008, including all existing and legible stones and markers.
