Joyce's Search Tip - December 2007 - Do You Know that you can search just the 600 pages of Tioga County Cemetery Records on the site by using the Cemeteries -Tioga 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 - Tioga.  2. Enter part of the cemetery name [ie Newbury or Furman] 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.

CHAMPLIN CEMETERY, WESTFIELD TOWNSHIP, TIOGA COUNTY, PA

The Champlin Cemetery was incorporated August 1887, by S.M. Strawn, John Champlin, Erastus Hoose, E.M. Tucker, and G.H. Tremain.

It is located on the old George Champlin Place, east of the California Brook and the California Road and adjacent to the north side of Route 49, about one mile east of Westfield, PA, a beautiful site.

This was an old neighborhood burial ground and was used for many years before incorporation.  Many burials in this cemetery are without stones or markers.  Many older markers are barely legible.  We have made every attempt to research, update, and offer this information.

This listing has been compiled of information on the markers and  “Notes and Inscriptions,” which may indicate “No tombstone located in 2003.”   To provide additional information we have included statistics obtained from cemetery records and other sources.  Flag markers are our sources of wars served when there is no government plaque.

We have divided the cemetery into four sections: Section One beginning by Route 49.    The remaining sections are divided by the roads.  Markers have been read beginning on the  eastern side in rows from south to north, proceeding westward by rows.

It is our intention to provide as much accurate information that is available and assist in offering statistics that may be a valuable source for those doing genealogical research.  As hard as recorders try, there will always be  errors.

Joyce Tip Box -- December 2007 - If you are not navigating this Tri-Counties Site via the left and right sidebars of the Current What's New page you are doing yourself a disservice. You can get to any place on the site easily by making yourself familiar with these subject and place topics. Try them all to be as familiar with the site's 16,000 plus pages as you can. Stop groping in the dark and take the lighted path. That's also the only way you'll find the search engines for the site or have access to the necessary messages I may leave for you. Make it easy on yourself.
