Columbia Township, Bradford County PA
The Taylor Cemetery is located on private property on Porter Road, leading from Troy to Sylvania in a cow pasture. After obtaining permission from the landowner, we read the names on the remaining tombstones. Possibly more stones on site, but buried at this time.
