Place:Green Hill Cemetery, Orleans, Orange, Indiana, United States

Located in west section of Orleans, the old town cemetery was laid off when Orleans was founded in 1815, when Orange County was a part of Washington County and Indiana was yet a territory. There are a number of unmarked graves, and many inscriptions are too worn to decipher. The first burial was that of a German settler, Frederick Fesperman, who died in 1816. The cemetery is well kept, under the auspices of the Village Improvement Society.
