CANOE CAMP CEMETERY

RICHMOND TOWNSHIP, TIOGA COUNTY, PA.

From Volume 1 of Tioga County Cemeteries ed. by Rhoda ENGLISH Ladd

Tom Wetmore of Wellsboro retyped this for the site November 1997

I, Joyce M. Tice, had assumed that this cemetery reading was done in 1969, because it apperaed in Volume One of the Rhoda ENGLISH Ladd work, and others in that volume were dated 1969 and 1970. However, our 2005 listing includes all of these stones and more that we uncovered from the sod. Given that the flood of 1972 is said to have washed away stones, and the cemetery was not put to rights until 1974, that date does not seem plausible. If it were done prior to the 1972 flood, there should be more stones. If after the 1974 cleanup, it could not have made it into Volume 1. I have not resolved the conflicting information I have encontered.
