A list of gravesite occupants for:

MOCK CEMETERY, Lawrence Twsp., Marion Co., IN

Location: North latitude 39 deg. 52.08 min. ; West longitude 85 deg. 58.04 min.. Cemetry is on the west edge of Oaklandon , IN, just north of of Indiana Road 67 (US 36), and just east of Indian Creek Bridge, Lawrence Twp., Marion County on property originally deeded to the community by Christopher Apple, Sr. The following is a transcription of a copy document I have in my Mock genealogy files. I believe the document was originally researched and prepared by Lois Chandler Apple. This cemetery is known as the Mock Cemetery because it was located in the corner of a farm which, in the late 19^th Century, was owned by Alexander Mock, my great-great grandfather. (whose wife, Mary Pickle, was the granddaughter of Christopher Apple, sr.). It contains the graves of several Mock descendants of Michael Mock I (son of Thomas Mackh) and families with which they intermarried (Apple, Bolander, Pickel, Cory). Ron Stoner June 30, 1998
