§ 1721.10.
Except as otherwise provided in this section, lands appropriated and set apart as
burial grounds, either for public or for private use, and recorded or filed as such
in the office of the county recorder of the county where they are situated, and any
burial ground that has been used as such for fifteen years are exempt from sale on
execution on a judgment, dower, and compulsory partition; but land appropriated and
set apart as a private burial ground is not so exempt if it exceeds in value the sum
of fifty dollars. The lien for taxes against such burial grounds may be enforced in the same manner
prescribed for abandoned lands under sections 323.65 to 323.79 of the Revised Code except that the burial ground may be transferred only to a municipal corporation,
county, or township under division (D) of section 323.74 of the Revised Code . No burial ground that is otherwise exempt from sale or execution under this section
shall be offered for sale at public auction.
