East Liberty Cemetery is at 740 E. Turkeyfoot
Lake Road (State Route 619), Green (
East
Liberty), Ohio (
Summit County).
It is south of Akron, Ohio, about 1/4 mile west of S. Arlington
Road. Some family records show this as the East Liberty
Township cemetery, however it is in Green Township which is now
the City of Green.
The oldest section of the cemetery is in the southeast
corner. It is behind a modern church and community center
building. This section appears to have been the old Kepler
Cemetery.
William
HARRINGTON (1791 Feb 13 - 1864 May 29) g.15
William is buried in the oldest
section of the cemetery. From the most southeastern
corner of the roads inside the cemetery, his grave is 6 rows
to the east of these roads (almost half way to the eastern
edge of the cemetery) and about 8 graves north of the southern
edge of the cemetery. The 2 stones for him face east,
away from the roads, one an old upright tombstone and the
other a newer headstone flush with the ground (see
photo). The upright stone is
inscribed: "Wm. HARRINGTON, Died May 29, 1864, Aged 73 ys 3 mo
16 ds" with remaining 4 lines illegible in 2010. The
flush stone is inscribed: "FATHER / Wm HARRINGTON / 1791 -
1864."

grave to the south of William.
