Located in Columbia Township, Bradford County, Pennsylvania in the northeast
portion of the township near the Springfield Township line and south of the
South Creek Township line. From Route 14 go east on Ketcham Road, cross the old
railroad tracks until you come to the Lawrence home. The cemetery is south of
the Lawrence residence in the edge of the woods. A small brook (usually dry)
runs between the house and cemetery. It would appear there is a single row of
markers about thirty feet in length of native stones marking graves. One of
these is inscribed "Father" and the remaining markers have no inscriptions,
except for the Morse marker which would appear to be at the south end of the
row. Nearby are the recent Lawrence family burials. Markers copied May 2000 by
J. Kelsey Jones. Other information obtained from Evelyn Comfort Cogswell of
Pine City.
