"The Jordan or Mt. Pleasant Burial Ground was established between 1842 and 1847.
It is located in Section 19. Township 18N. Range 13E of Wayne County, Indiana, on the line between Wayne and Randolph counties.
Diane Lumpkin chose to record and document information about the burials in this cemetery for her 4-H project in 1993.
Photographs were taken and records searched. She has assembled the information into a booklet which is available in
the Indiana State Library and the Fort Wayne Public Library. Diane received a blue ribbon for her project.

**This stone is missing in 1993; information is from a transcription done in 1969 by Beverly Yount.
