Joyce's Search Tip - December 2007 - Do You Know that you can search just the 600 pages of Tioga County Cemetery Records on the site by using the Cemeteries -Tioga 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 - Tioga.  2. Enter part of the cemetery name [ie Newbury or Furman] 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.

Name of Cemetery:    Frost Settlement Cemetery
Deeded as Wilcox Cemetery although I have never yet seen it referred to by that name. This deeded name is a recent event having to do with gas company leases. It is not known by this  name at all.

Note from Joyce September 2005. Linda CORNELL Reese has recorded this cemetery again, for the first time we know of since 1970. Parts of the cemetery are in terrible condition although there are also a few new burials.  Labor Day 2005, Linda and I spent in this and another cemetery working on this new listing. Many of the older stones are broken and otherwise corroded to illegibility. One stone, as an example, was standing firmly on its base, bottom half only. The upper part we found about fifteen feet away in a woodchuck hole, about to fall over the bank into the road. I am tempted to rename this the Tuco Cemetery in honor of the jigsaw puzzle brand we used to have back mid century. Some of the stones we had to put together from scattered pieces, and as with all jigsaw puzzles, some of the pieces are missing. In many cases, we uncovered buried stones that had never been recorded

All of these people are part of my own Sullivan-Rutland Genealogy Project, the community genealogy which tracks both the ancestors and the descendants of this eastern Tioga County area. I will be adding their SRGP ID as time permits. If you are descended from them, I'd like to exhange what I know about your ancestry with what you can provide me on the present generations,  so that my population study can be current and up to date.
