Mystery Missing Bodies Cheshire Graveyard Rise News Alum Creek Reservoir Columbus Ohio April 10

Where are the bodies?

Caskets rose from the graveyard. They do it every so often. This event seemed timed with Easter.

The mystery is: where are the bodies? Why would people bury caskets with no bodies?

This is a beautiful old cemetery, but it is generally buried under the water. It is in Cheshire, Ohio, and belonged to the Cheshire Church. The church is gone, but some of the lovely stones remain.

Many news crews, CBS NBC ABC FOX TV, came to watch. Helicopters circled.

At times authorities worry about arsenic in the drinking water and the recreation area.

Later they announced that remains were found in some of the caskets.

[ProfessorWraith]

The reservoir was built on a large swath of land that included what had been fields, farms, and even some graveyards, both formal and informal. People had lived on that land for well more than a century before the Army Corps of Engineers came in and built the reservoir.

I lived in the area and had grown up there. Although the corrupt powers that run Delaware County made sure no real dissent was heard, many old-time residents were bitter, upset, or just plain sad when that mess was put in.

Some lost farms that had been in the family for generations and some lost a lot of money. Some of the land was sold for a lot more than the farmers were paid when they were forced out.

I saw this on the news last night. it is kind of creepy. I wonder why there where no more remains in the caskets?
