BAILEY FAMILY CEMETERY
RUTLAND TOWNSHIP, TIOGA COUNTY, PA.
Located in Rutland Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania not far from the Sullivan Township line on a high knoll about 150 feet east of the road that leads from Route 549 to Elk Run. Markers copied November 1982 by J. Kelsey Jones.
Note from JMT: This burial ground is in very bad condition. It is in an actively used cow pasture. Most tombstones are lying on the ground buried or partially buried. The area has active woodchuck burrows in it which accounts for the burial of the remaining stones. I visited it in 1994 and found it in deplorable condition.
