The Mitchell/Robinson Cemetery is the earliest in Union County having been used as by the Indians before the white settlers arrived.  Many of the first settlers in this part of the county are buried here; among them are Samuel McCullough who died in 1800 and the first female white child born in Ohio.  The cemetery is located on the north side of Big Darby Creek on State Route 38 south of Marysville.  The west half of the cemetery is the old pioneer cemetery and on the east is the "new" portion which is still in use.

• Robinson [NOTE:  In 1933 the Robinson Family Association placed a plaque on a boulder honoring the Robinson Pioneers who removed from their homes in York County, PA and settled in Union County.  Since the plaque was installed much has been learned concerning these pioneers, and the couple listed as their parents is incorrect.  They were all sons and daughters of James Robinson (7 Feb 1740/41-10 Jan 1815 and his wife Sarah Dixon (ca. 1743-26 Oct 1818) of Chanceford Twp., York County, PA.  One additional note--Ann and Nellie were not daughters of James and Sarah.  Contact Leona at ]
