Comments: Above Lindley, Steuben County, NY - Coming from Corning,
NY to Lawrenceville, Tioga, PA, on Rt. 15, turn right above Lindley on Watson
Creek Road for about 8 miles. It is a maze of overgrown country roads from
there. It has been turned into a pasture and only a few stones left.

Checked your list for a Cem. with a sign on it "Deats Cem." Tioga Co. Pa.
Also, checked Baker which it is listed under on the Steuben Co. web. page.There
is a question of whether or not this is in Pa. or NY. It is located on the State
Line Road between NYand Penna between Tioga,Co. Pa(Lawrenceville,Pa.)and
Lindley,NY. The Steuben page says it is 8 miles from Lindley which I questioned
because Lindley is 6 miles square. I have checked with the town assessor and the
highway superintendant of Lindley. They have no knowledge of it. After talking
to several residents in the area, they state it is on the left side of the road
or the Pa. side. When the Lindley bicentennial book was written in 1990 , it was
listed as Deats possibly on the Stoddard Road, but authors were not sure.Is
there
perhaps another name under which it might be listed on your page? Names
listed are Baker,Elliot, Westfall,Deats,. The dates go from 1862 to 1947.
Please refer to Steuben Co. page under Lindley Cem for a complete list. Think
it is important to have correct documentation. Wasn't sure who would have the
Pa. records for that area. Hoping you can shed some light on this. Catherine M.

Joyce- a note to let you know we tracked the Baker- Deats Cem . down today.
It is definitely on the Penna. side of the State Line Road in Lawrence Township.
It is a half mile on the left from the junction of Button Hill, State Line
Road.It is tended, fenced, gate. Not sure by whom. No sign this time. If you
pass the Swan road, you have gone too far. The Button-Hill road is across the
road from the Tompkins campground on the Bliss road (north side of the
Cowanesque River.The Steuben Co. NY website has the names of the graves listed
under the Baker Cemetery. Scott Gitchell has no record of it. My next Cem in
that area is the Cady Cem., since both Tioga, Pa. and Steuben Co. have it listed
on their websites.Will keep you posted. We found the Cem. by using Watson Creek,
State Line Rd. in Lindley, but think road is much better, probably shorter using
the Bliss Road. thanks for your assistance. Kitty P.
