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. 

The following list is part of the Tioga County Cemetery Inscriptions Vol 5 .

Good Evening from Ft Worth.  My records show that a couple of my ancestors are buried in the Chatham, Tioga Co, Short Cemetery.  Their names are Jonathan Mosher born about 1781, died 1833 and his wife Basheba Fuller Mosher born 1793 died 8 Jan 1871.  Just finished checking the interments for the Short Cemetery and they are not there.  Can you help me out?  George gwmosher@nationwide.net   Thanks for any and all help
