Griffin or Van Benschoter
Researched by Henry Timman 1984
Cemetery located near Shinrock

Mrs. Cherry described a small cemetery near Shinrock, Ohio (Berlin Township) which I think she called Griffin or Van Benschoter cemetery.I know approximate site of it, but have never been there. My grandfather's cousin told me that when he was a boy, a stone for "Polly Hollister" leaned against a tree and hid mother him was some relation to them. (His mother was Frances Hollister). Another cousin of my grandfather's told when I mentioned Harvey Horton Hollister, son of Jessie Chambers and Anna Horton Hollister, "Harvey Hollister buried at Shinrock" So, here's what I have on Harvey Horton Hollister.

The cemetery is believed to be south of Barrows Road between Jeffries Road and Eckoff Ditch.

The cemetery is located in Berlin Township, Erie County, Ohio, and is # 13415 (Griffin Cemetery / Vanbenschoter Cemetery) in "Ohio Cemeteries 1803-2003", compiled by the Ohio Genealogical Society.
