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. |

Located in southeastern Rutland Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania
on or near the former Seth E. and Susanna Howland farm on the east side
of an old road (see 1875 atlas where S. E. Howland residence was) bordered
by a stone wall. The cemetery can be reached by using a driveway on the
highest point of Kennedy Road and taking the driveway west, past and behind
the residence (used for hunting camp) to the old road and then go about
100 yards south on the old road and down the hill along the stone wall.
There are four large markers of native stone set in the ground bearing
no inscriptions and some smaller native markers which may indicate burials
or footmarkers. Markers copied November 1998 by J. Kelsey Jones and photographed
by Joyce M. Tice.
