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.

This is about two miles past Allens fruit farm on the right going north on 187.  There is a home owned by Bruce Weaver, then someone in a trailer.  There is the Reeves home on the left which has a large porch.  Next to the trailer is where the cemetery is. It is in a field.  I knew a woman who lived in that area years ago and asked if there was anything on the stones and was told no. I wish I had gone then as there is information on them and I probably could have obtained more back then. I saw someone there trying to clean it up last week.   Reva.

I believe Mary may have been married to an Eastman as there is a Mary Eastman 55, living with a Augusta (female) Eastman (11) both living with Lewis Goff family in the 1850 Rome census.  Living next to them are many Woodburns.

Visited the Woodburn Cemetery July 21, 2010 with Bruce Weaver, Diana Pelton, Loraine Cummings and others who have been working to clean-up this cemetery.  Still lots of work yet to be done!

One important addition to your listing which they have uncovered is the wife of Naphtali Woodburn.
It reads:

REBECCA
wife of
NAPHTALI WOODBURN
DIED
Dec. 28, 1849
E. 74y's. 4m's
& 7 d's___

The Lord is good!

Her husband Naphtali's tombstone lies flat on the ground beside her and the information you have is ok.
The marker for Moses Lyman Woodburn is one of the few tombstones still erect and readable.

It reads:

M.L.
Son of
Moses & Esther
Woodburn
died Jan. 20.
1845,
E. 21y. 8 m.
& 15 d's

As information Bruce pointed out that in a seperate area it appeares there may be other graves.

Today I have mailed him a copy of page 36 from Pioneer and patriot families of Bradford County, Pennsylvania, 1800-1825 which includes a paragraph which in brief says that Jacob Dutcher, a settler on Wysox Creek and his wife Deborah rest in the old Woodburn cemetery.

  There are many markers here which are no longer readable and I suspect you are walking on graves without markers.  The Woodburn Cemetery is truly a Burial Ground.
