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. |

Potter Brook or Pioneer Cemetery was established 1874. This cemetery
is in Potter Brook, Tioga Co., PA. on Route 49 and on the north side of
town across from the church. Many stones are too weathered to read.
Others have been overturned or broken. Faith Cary, Eleanor Hurler and Betty
Cary read this cemetery in May 2002. We compared our reading to the
Tioga
County Cemetery Inscriptions, Vol. 7 (1972)as reprinted on Tri-County Site.

Subj: Additional cemetery data
Date: 9/24/2002 8:43:02 PM Eastern Daylight Time
From: CARTONS@email.msn.com (ANTHONY SCHIRALDI)
To: JoyceTice@aol.com
For several years I've wanted to say THANK YOU for all the time and
effort that you've put into the Tri-county website. I've found much useful
and needed data therein, and have used it when we've gone to Tioga County.
I thought I'd say that now, when I can add a little to the tremendous amount
of information you have.
I have additional information about 2 burials in POTTERBROOK CEMETERY.
1) To the left of the gravestone for "Charles Stebbins
May2,1854-May 11,1884" is a slate grave marker with the initials "CLB"
scratched on it. That is the grave of CHAUNCEY L. BUTTON , 1872-1921, son
of Abner Button" [What would it take to have that engraved on it????}
2) To the left of that one is a now-almost-unreadable gravestone; it
marks the gravesite of "JULIA BUTTON JEFFERS, Mar 31,1878-Feb 11,1939,
daughter of Abner Button, wife of George Jeffers".
I hope that the above info about those people can be entered into permanent
records.
Again, thank you for all your work on behalf of all us.
Anthony, husband of Carol Schiraldi cartons@msn.com
