I found this information. I do not know how reliable it is, but looking at Google Earth seems promising for this location.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++

Cemetery lies on land originally owned by Michael Stockberger in late 1700's. After he died in 1800, the farm land went to his widow Charlotte, except for two acres set aside as burial ground. The Stockberger family sold farm to Martin Bash, Jr. after the death of widow Charlotte Stockberger.

Cemetery is overgrown and neglected, and difficult to find. It is located in the middle of farm fields, along the side of a rural road.

Directions to Cemetery:
1. From Greensburg, take Rt. 30 East.
2. Take Rt. 130/Pleasant-Unity Exit.
3. Make right onto Rt. 130 East
4. Follow Rt. 130 East for 4.8 miles. Make right onto SR 2017.
5. Cemetery is 0.4 miles on right. Look for cement steps on hillside.
