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. 
One Two Three Four Five 1968 Listing
This cemetery was recorded by Donna Allen, Wendy & Eileen Baker. Completed Sept .20 ,2003.  Due to recent storms a tree had fallen on some of the stones and info on those was impossible to get. A few stones are worn and unreadable. Because of the wet weather several areas had standing water and the bugs were terrible. If visiting go with plenty of bug repellant. Approximately 165 names have been added [to the 1968 listing] with several missing dates filled in.

Joyce,

Thank you for all your work and for sharing it here on tri Co web site.  My daughter & I have used it from time to time to check out more leads on family gen.  In reviewing some info on the Knowlton Cemetery outside Marshlands, Tioga County I noted my grandfather’s info to have an error.  This listed his birth year as 1921.  I know this to be in error.  He was born in 1901.  His daughter, my mother was born in 1923, her stone is also in Knowlton.  Also My Great Grandmother, Sarah A. Shadle, is showing her birth year as 1889.  I know it to be 1879.  All three head stones at Knowlton would confirm my report.
Thank you again for all you have shared.
R. Bud Voorhees

Hi Bud, Thanks for info but you forgot to tell me your grandfather's name, etc. Please provide full info so I can add your note intelligently. Thanks, Joyce m. Tice
