I think Pentecost is a private family cemetery. To get to it turn south of Ohio 177 the road that goes through Fairhaven at Ohio Indian state line on State Line road.
Thomas and Benjamin lived at farm on NE corner of State Line and Paint creek Four Mile road
Just south is Pentecost rd going into Indiana and Pentecost cemetery is a mile or tow down that road.

The big Stone marker reads on west side Thomas Skillman died Feb. 7, 1874 age 68 years
2 months 17 days age (68-2-17)? the stone needs to be cleaned.
east side reads Mary wife of Thomas died (10/19) 1881 age 72-7-9
south side reads Mary died Nov 7. 1877 age 44-8 2---\
north side reads
( Elizabeth ????????????)
(Sarah ?????????)

The little stone I believe says something about Mary

There is another smaller obelisk just north of the Skillman stone that fell over and was frozen to the ground
