Shiloh Cemetery

Shiloh Cemetery is located on the corner of Concession Rd 5 and Shiloh Road, in a very small area of Clarington known as Starkville. It sits somewhere between Orono and Newtonville. The cemetery is also known as Shiloh United Cemetery or Shiloh Wesleyan Methodist Cemetery. The cemetery is located on the same land as the Shiloh United Church, which was built in 1861. I have found conflicting accounts as to whether or not the church is still active, but it is well maintained and while it may not be used for regular services it is probably at least used for community events. So urban explorers-don't go breaking in!
Also, the cemetery and church are in an area with several homes, so please be respectful. Several of the monuments actually back right onto someones front yard, almost into their driveway.

 Thomas Rae
Mary A. Humpoe, died Sept 23, 1854.
Unfortunately, most of what has been etched into these monuments are too worn to read.

 A footstone with the initials T.J.D. and J.H.D., their monument is a little further down, so I think the footer has been moved.

If you are out and about, doing some kick-butt cemetery hunting (I can't be the only one, can I?) this is a great drive. Concession 5 not only has Shiloh Cemetery, but it also has White/Porter Cemetery just down the road, and a little bit further you'll find Lawrence/Waddell Cemetery. However, if you are travelling in the summer months make sure you bring your bug spray, we ran into mosquitos the size of small hawks!
