Potter Brook or Pioneer Cemetery was established 1874. This cemetery
is in Potter Brook, Tioga Co., PA. on Route 49 and on the north side of
town across from the church. Many stones are too weathered to read.
Others have been overturned or broken. Faith Cary, Eleanor Hurler and Betty
Cary read this cemetery in May 2002. We compared our reading to the
Tioga
County Cemetery Inscriptions, Vol. 7 (1972)as reprinted on Tri-County Site.

Hi Joyce,
I have been researching some new-found ancestors who lived in Tioga
co., PA. The names were Peter W. GRIFFIN and Sarah (FOSDICK) GRIFFIN who
lived in Clymer twp., Tioga co., PA from 1852 until their deaths after
the 1870 census. (They were both born in 1795 in Clinton, Dutchess
co., NY & moved to Steuben co., NY before 1840.) They were buried
in Potter(brook) cemetery Tioga co., PA /Potter co., PA - but were listed
as Peter W. and Sarah F. "GRIDLEY" instead of GRIFFIN. This occurred
on both versions for the Potterbrook cemetery. However, www.paintedhills.org
has a 3rd version that lists them as GRIFFIN. I am sure that the
"GRIDLEYS" are a match for my GRIFFINS, from their birthdates and the fact
that they are buried next to
Jane GRIFFIN TANNER (their daughter, b. 1829). They also have
a son-in-law in the cemetery (Osborn WYATT, husband of their dau Mary GRIFFIN)
and a grandaughter (Sarah WYATT, wife of Alvah STILES) in Potterbrook cemetery.
I could find no other burial for a Peter & Sarah GRIFFIN in Tioga co.
or surrounding area.
All the best to you in the New Year,
Linda Z. O'Halloran
