I found this cemetery on what is now State Road #5, but it was State Road #221 then. It sits on a hill overlooking Walnut Creek. The 1877 Grant Co. Atlas says that Charles Atkinson entered his land in Monroe Twp. in 1836, but it was 2 more years before he brought his family there to live. This cemetery lies on that land. His son James was living on a part of that parcel in 1877. The stone of Charles, in the Atkinson Cemetery, states he was born in York Co., Pennsylvania June 21, 1796.
