Pine Cemetery
Pine Cemetery is located in section 11 of Washington Township in south-central Mercer County. From Princeton, go approximately two miles south on highway 65 to second unpaved road to the right. This will be the first gravel road to the right after the intersection with blacktop E. Turn right (west) and go approximately 1/4 mile to the entrance to the rock quarry. The road will turn to the right (north). Go north approximately 1/4 mile to the cemetery.
The old Pine Church is on the right side of the road prior to the cemetery. Although the cemetery is well maintained and still in use, many of the stones are down, damaged and/or worn, and can no longer be read. This should not be considered a complete list of burials.
This survey was conducted by Phil & Kathi Stewart on September 27, 2004.

Powell Cemetery
The Powell Cemetery is located in section 8 of Medicine Township, approximately six miles southeast of Princeton. From Princeton, go south on highway 65 approximately two miles to blacktop E and turn left (east). Go east approximately three miles to blacktop Y and turn right. Just as the road makes a gradual "S" curve before going south, the cemetery is off to the west of the road. It is considered abandoned and is not accessable by vehicle. This list has been compiled from various sources including old surveys, burial records and family histories. It should not be considered a complete list of burials.
