Henry McAninch’s Grave Found in James Cemetery, Jackson, Jackson County, Ohio


Many people volunteer in cemetery restoration efforts across the country, and we thank them for

their efforts. Last year, the James Cemetery Restoration Project, in Jackson, Ohio, found the top

and bottom halves of Henry McAninch (1777-1856)’s gravestone marker. This Henry McAninch

is one of the six early ‘first-generation’ McAninch pioneers in Armstrong County, Pennsylvania,

and then Henry and his family went west to Ohio in 1807-1808. There are two related articles

in this issue about Henry and his family, and about James Cemetery, in Jackson County, Ohio.
