Marti,

"Cemetery Inscriptions of Highland County, Ohio" by McBride, reprinted 1972, page 276:
County Home, Liberty Twp.
This cemetery is on the Highland County Home farm, no longer in operation in 1972. The Hillsboro News Herald of 7 Jan 1943 states that Edward Britton is buried here. The Hillsboro Dispatch of 18 Jan 1916 states that Wm. Taylor, aged 99 years, died Saturday at the Infirmary and was buried there. Thomas Rhoads, brother of "Lawyer" Henry Rhoads, is also buried there.
The McBrides found only one stone inscribed William A. Harris, 1823-1897. This land is now the site of the Rocky Fork water treatment plant.
I did not find your Joseph Gayman in the book. There is a Joseph Gaymon, but he is also on 1880 census in White Oak Twp.
I dug out my copy of Roots and Shoots, Vol. 20, #4, which contains Bob Andrew's abstracts of the records. I did not find a record for Joseph Gayman. Roots and Shoots is published by Southern Ohio Gen. Soc., website below.

The Highland County Historical Society has the actual records but I do not know if they will do look ups.
