It's here! The long awaited for Radnor Twp Cemetery Directory reading of the new sections of the cemetery; the Old Section is not a part of this directory for now. This was a great and rewarding project that your Radnor Heritage Society decided to take on about 3 years ago. Please note: this is still a work in progress and probably will be for several months if not years but you can help.

As you browse the Directory (it does have the ALT F search feature) and see anything that needs corrected (spelling, dates, military service) or was omitted please refer those to our email address: [email protected]. We will issue updates to the Directory in a timely manner.

If you have questions, please reach out to the same email address or send us a FB message.

We are thrilled to be able to make this available for Radnor Township Ohio! And our many thanks go out to the volunteers who helped make this possible.

Here is the link to the Directory on our www.radnorheritagesociety.org page under Radnor Genealogy:

We hope the community is as happy with this project as we are to present it!
