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. |

Frost Settlement Cemetery
Covington Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania
The 1970s listing below that we published earlier
as our only available resource, is very incomplete. This was published
originally as part of the work of the Rhoda ENGLISH Ladd group that read
so many of the Tioga County cemeteries. In
2005 we have reinventoried as many of these as we can, determining
how many of the stones read then, thirty five years ago, are still in place,
and in many cases, we uncovered buried stones that had never been
read.
Note from Joyce September 2005. Linda CORNELL
Reese has recorded this cemetery again. Parts of the cemetery are in terrible
condition although there are also a few new burials. Yesterday, Labor Day
2005, Linda and I spent in this and another cemetery working on a new listing.
Many of the older stones are broken and otherwise corroded to illegibility.
The stone pictured above was standing on its base. The upper part we found
about fifteen feet away in a woodchuck hole, about to fall over the bank
into the road. I am tempted to rename this the Tuco Cemetery in honor of
the jigsaw puzzle brand we used to have back mid century. Some of the stones
we had to put together from scattered pieces, and as with all jigsaw puzzles,
some of the pieces are missing.
Deeded as Wilcox Cemetery although I have never yet seen it referred
to by that name. This deeded name is a recent event having to do with gas
company leases.
