“Colerain Township Historical Foster Cemetery is located east of Miamitown on the north side of 7574 Harrison Avenue. The Cemetery can be found in a grove of mature trees between Hunters Ridge Lane and East Miami River Road as of 2018. There is a business just to the west of the Cemetery where you can drive into their parking lot and park along side of the Cemetery. This provides easy access to the Historical Foster Family Cemetery. There are over 30 records of people buried in Foster Cemetery. Based on the headstones location, there are most likely additional burials here without stones. With the identified 17 photographed headstones that are legible, we can see that the earliest burial was in 1832. Most of the identifiable headstones were set in the 1850s. Absalom Foster (1766-1849) and his wife Agness Foster (1789-1837) are buried here and their headstones are easily found. Asa Foster (1758-1827) is also buried at the Foster Cemetery. Asa Foster is recognized as a Revolutionary War Soldier by the Hamilton County Genealogical Society. There are two other Foster’s in the records found at this Cemetery, Sarah E. Foster (1835-1836) daughter of Samuel R. Foster and Solomon Foster (-1828). Unfortunately, no other relationship information for the Foster’s, are available as of July 2018. There are more than 14 family names buried in the Foster Cemetery as well as multiple unknown burials.”

“My Mother is buried here. She passed a year ago tomorrow, and we all went to visit her gravesite today. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly, and the grounds are very well maintained. I only have three issues that kept me from giving five stars. First, the promised phone call when Mom's marker was placed never came. We only found out it had been placed when we visited on Mother's Day. Second, it's the condition of some of the roads. There are some major potholes there. Third, the condition of the wooden cross at the cemetery's highest point is worrying. It is leaning severely to the north and looks like a strong wind could take it down. Half of the nuts and bolts that connect it to the concrete base via a steel bracket are missing, with some of them just laying next to it.”
