DRIVING DIRECTIONS
From Lancaster, travel north on North High Street and continue to the right, after the fairgrounds and Rising Park, onto Granville Pike. Continue north as the road merges into Lancaster-Newark Road NE and turn left onto Marquette Drive NE. Then turn right onto Tschopp Road NE and left into the parking lot of the Lutheran Church. The cemetery lies on the left side of the church.
THE HISTORY
In 1806, John Zeigler received this land via a presidential grant from Thomas Jefferson. Zeigler Emmanuel Lutheran Church and the Olive United Methodist Church sit directly across the road from one another, earning them the local nickname, “Twin Churches.” The Zeigler Cemetery lies positioned to the left of the church.
