Oxford Cemetery, Oxford, Franklin, Idaho, USA


 


Notes:
The Oxford Cemetery Association was founded in 1855 by a group of citizens who purchased 31.4 acres of farmland from W.A. Irwin. The land and its surroundings lie just south of the campus of Miami University at 4385 Oxford-Millville Road (US 27).

The need for the cemetery developed with the railroad coming to Oxford. The Junction Railroad Company had purchased a right-of-way from village officials and the railroad track bisected the then-existing burial grounds that had served the small community since 1817. Many residents felt the cemetery was no longer a suitable resting place for their loved ones. So with a $500 first payment on the land, the Oxford Cemetery was founded.
