The LONG CEMETERY is located about 2 miles west, and about 1 mile south of Urbana, Indiana, and along the Paw Paw Creek. Joseph is buried in Row 1, the same row as his son, John P. Baker.

While "White Creek" usually thinks of this cemetery as being of the "English" (as the Amish would say); there are actually a number of descendants of the German Reformed immigrants buried here.
