The earliest known grave is that of Mary Ann Schrock in 1835. We are proud to have a Mexican War Veteran, Daniel Whetzel, who was instrumental in starting the Kingwood Church of God Sunday School. We also have Adam Sanner, Jacob Phillippi, James Cook (who lost an arm) and Harrison Wiltrout, all Veterans of the Civil War. John May is a WWI Veteran, and Thomas Sanner is from WWII. From storekeepers to station agents, miners and farmers, and a locomotive engineer, all are buried in Mt. Union. Even the parents of U. S. Congressman J. Buell Snyder, who represented Fayette and Somerset County are here. This is a beautiful hilltop location from which you can see Mt. Davis to the east, and the windmills at Mill Run to the west. Lots are available.
