Joyce's Search Tip - December 2007 -
Do You Know that you can search just the Bradford County Cemetery Records on the site by using the Cemeteries -Bradford 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 - Bradford. 
2. Enter part of the cemetery name [ie Ballard or Berrytown] 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.

Coryland Cemetery

WellsTownship, Bradford County PA

 Located in southern Wells Township, Bradford County, Pennsylvania beside the church on the south side of Old Hickory Road. Formerly known as Aspinwall and Old Hickory, the cemetery contains the earliest interments of the residents of southern Wells and northern Columbia. The oldest dated marker is Mary Brasted who died Jan 1828 but she died in New Jersey and may not be buried at Coryland or was reinterred there from New Jersey. Lois Southworth died June 1829 and a son of James and Esther Gordon died Nov 1829. Older burials perhaps exist without markers. These burials predate the Presbyterian Church which was formed in 1832 and where a house of worship was later built beside the cemetery. Markers copied Sept 1977 and verified again June 1979 by J. Kelsey Jones. Single spacing of type indicates those individuals appearing on one marker. Anything appearing in parenthesis is added information for clarification by the compiler and does not appear on the marker.
