According to Raitz and Thompson in their book, A Guide to the National Road, "The National Road here ran inside the cemetery and just north of US 40. The earliest grave is dated 1811."

The most recent burial seems to have occurred in 1899. A short obituary regarding this burial can be found in the Newark Daily Advocate newspaper on January 11, 1899: "Kirkersville: Mrs. Abraham Frideger formerly of this place and late of Columbus, O., was buried at Parkinson Cemetery on the pike Wednesday morning. She was a sister of Jacob Keckley, of this place."
