This cemetery is in many levels, with steps, going down to next level, in same places. Otherwise one slides down to next level. There was two stones, near a back road, I could not get to, from the upper level. I forget to try the back road though it was grown up in weeds and briers. Also- I did not do a few new ones in a new section, on the left, going in. Night was falling and I had two days there.

August 2006 note from a visiting site guest - Nelson Cemetery in Nelson, PA
Address is Bliss Rd.  GPS coordinates are
N 41degrees 58.613'  W077degrees 13.942'
The GPS showed me as being off Bliss Rd, so just in case, the cemetery is adjacent to the Moccasin Trail, part of the park system designed by the Army Corps of Engineers.
In trying to look up the location on many of the Internet maps site, it shows the Cowanesque to be much smaller than it really is.  They show no water where there is plenty!
