(August 1, 2018, 3:58 pm)Willsey Historical Cemetery is located at 8510 Eagle Creek Road, Colerain Township, Hamilton County, Ohio.
Willsey is a beautiful field-stone walled historic cemetery. The stone wall and the Cemetery area is well maintained on a regular basis.
There are over 20 headstones photographed and over 50 records of burials. There are two headstones of Veterans of the Civil War, Alex McGreadie (1843-1905) Company K, Ohio Infantry and Hannah Willsey (1826-1900) Nurse, Medical Department of the United States Navy.
The Willsey name if prevalent throughout the Cemetery as well as Snyder, Henrie and a few others. The oldest burial record is from 1826 and the most recent one is found to be 1928. There are a few headstones that are illegible and some that are broken.
The Willsey Cemetery not only has significant historical value but it also remains a photogenic location. There is a private driveway next to the Cemetery but no public parking area.
