Wesley Chapel M.E. Church Organized in 1833 by Rev. Thomas Simmes at the residence of Philip Young. In 1843/1847, a frame church was built on the Murphy Pike. (Shelby Co. OH History Franklin Twp. GenWeb site)

Buried Wesley Chapel Cemetery...... Wesley Chapel is located on the east side of Lochard Road about 3 miles east of the Shelby County town of Anna. Probably the easiest way to find it is to go to Anna (where some of the "Young Tribe" have been mayor), then go east on SR 119 (the "main drag" in Anna) for about 3 miles and turn south onto Lochard Road. You will find the cemetery on your left less than a mile after turning onto Lochard Road - directly across from several newer "ranch-style" houses. All of the tombstones are sitting right beside the road. All of the markers have been moved from their original locations to a concrete foundation that is not much larger than an average-sized house! Many of the markers (including Philip's) are broken and some have obviously been "lost" - the markers of many people who are reported to have been buried there are conspicuously absent. Philip/Phillip actually has 2 markers there - one for him alone and one with 2nd wife Kezia (Curtis) Young and HER 2nd husband, Samuel Buireley. (Philip Young died from Quinsy infection and choked to death.)

Death Cause - INFL (inflamation) He was ill for five days.

Ohio, County Marriage Records, 1774-1993 Phillip Young and Kezia Curtis....... "On the 30th of July 1826 Phillip Young and Kezia Curtis were legally joined in marriage by me as Justice of the Peace in and for the County of Pickaway. Given under my hand this 4th (11th?) day of Sept 1826. Signed Peter Miller J.P." So, according to the above Philip and Kezia Young must have named their son Peter Miller Young after the Justice of the Peace. (I am assuming.)
