The Hoge Cemetery, in Center Twp, Greene County PA is located on Willow Road, just south of Oak Forrest PA. Coming from the south, turn left onto Willow Road, and there is a Ravine, approximate 150 Yards up the road on the right. Walk up this ravine, approximately 100 yards, and above the ravine, on the right, is the cemetery (or what's left of it.) All the stones are down, or leaning against a tree that has split, with half the tree lying on the ground, coving at least one headstone. Cemetery is in terrible condition, and doubtless, there are several more stones buried just under the surface of the ground.

Most of the stones in this cemetery are broken and illegible, and I was unable to Identify several of the markers the Hennens found in 1975. As such, please reference my full set of photos on Flickr for a more complete view of the cemetery.

From the Hennen Cemetery Records:

Hoge Cemetery

Located on Former Stewart farm, slightly west of Oak Forest.
2 August 1975
Dorothy & James Hennen

This cemetery was most difficult to locate as it had none of the "tell-tale" signs; it was llocated on the side of a hill and every marker was down. We found it, with the assistance of the property owner, Mr. Wilson, on our third try.
