Olio Township Cemetery – Woodford County – United States

Olio Township Cemetery is located in Eureka, Woodford County, Illinois. The cemetery originated in 1848 as a burial ground for the local Christian Church. After the congregation moved to a new site, the grounds came under the jurisdiction of the City of Eureka. In 1905, a township cemetery organization was established and additional land was purchased; in 1906, title to the original cemetery was transferred to the township by the city and the heirs of Ben Major. The cemetery has since been administered by the township trustees.
