Weeks Cemetery

 This is a family burial ground located on the old Weeks Farm. Originally read by Rhoda English Ladd as part of the TCCI project in the 1970's. [older listing below]

 This cemetery is in Clymer Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania on private property,  in a pasture about 75 feet east of  Ladd Road about 2.5 miles from Pa route 349.

 The cemetery is in a small clump of trees. Dirt covers some of the headstones and is unfenced in the pasture.  There are at least 6 burials with other burials possible.

 One headstone, Mary is buried about 10 inches deep,  3+ feet SE of the NW most base, partially under the tree – it is broken but in otherwise good shape. Since the stones are unprotected, it was reburied for protection.
