The Dye Cemetery was originated in 1812 at the death of Enoch Dye, oldest son of John Dye. At the time it was started, the cemetery was located in the farm of A J Dye. The cemetery is approximately nine miles from Marietta on State Route 26 in Lawrence Township and located in what is now called Beackerville. There are more than fifty bodies of members and relatives of the Dye family in this historic place of rest. They record the unstoppable march of time, but if something is not done soon, our only record of the members buried in this cemetery will be destroyed by weather and other natural elements. That is why we researched and prepared this record of the Dye Cemetery for posterity and the public. We hope it will serve a useful purpose in preserving the history of our township. Sincerely, Lisa Biehl, President, Bear Run Bobcats 4-H Club 

 

State Route 26 is on this side of the Cemetery.
