Joyce's Search Tip - December 2007 -
 |
Do You Know that you can search just the
Bradford
County Cemetery Records on the site by using the Cemeteries -Bradford
button in the Partitioned search engine at the bottom of the
Current
What's New Page? If you use that partition follow these steps to
search just one cemetery.
1. Choose Cemeteries - Bradford.
2. Enter part of the cemetery name [ie Ballard or Berrytown] AND a
surname.
3. Choose the Find ALL Words option. Then it will find just the pages
with that surname in the one cemetery you indicated. |

Joyce,
I saw you just added the Bailey Burial Ground reading to the website.
I wanted to share these photos taken in July 2003 of some of the stones
in this cemetary.
Dennis Carter now owns the old Bailey farm. He was gracious enough
to accompany me up the hill to the cemetery during my research trip to
Bradford County. He helped me pull back the weeds covering some of
these stones. One of these pics is of the grand oak tree that stands
over the cemetery.
Please note there is a photo of Electa Baldwin Bailey's stone, b. 1822
d. 14 Sep. 1881. She is the wife of Jeremiah Bailey b. 19 Nov 1817
d. 1891. Electa is not listed in this reading; but since this stone
is there, I would think it safe to assume she is there as well. The
stone is hard to read unless you zoom in on the photo.
Also shown on the photo of Thomas J. Bailey and Lydia, his wife, Lydia's
dates are given as follows...b. 22 Nov 1844 d. 8 Jan 1873. The reading
gives her dates as identical to Thomas'.
