Cemetery read and submitted by J. Kelsey Jones, Photos by Joyce M. Tice (April 98)
A to K L to Z

Located in Wells Township, Bradford County, Pennsylvania in the village of Mosherville, formerly known as French Mills and Wells before the name Mosherville was adopted. Oldest dated marker is 1813 (William Keyes) which is also related to be the first death of an adult in the township. Several native field stones without inscriptions in the oldest section. Markers copied July 1977 and rechecked April and July 1979 by J. Kelsey Jones. Single spacing of type indicates names appearing on one marker. Anything appearing in parenthesis is added information by the compiler for clarification and does not appear on the marker.
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.
