Book Description
533. Locations and Origins of the Cemeteries of Beaver County, Pennsylvania by Mark R. Barnes (2005) ISBN#978-1-55856-441-1. Mark aimed to find all the cemeteries in Beaver County he could find and provide a listing in book form for easy reference. He started with the 1936 Works Progress Administration listing (Project 2039). This list includes the cemetery names, townships in which they are located, a map of Beaver County withthe corresponding numbers showing basic locations of the cemeteries. The book includes another 40 cemeteries as collected by the 1983 American Legion project. Mark added what he could to these lists and then added a brief location finder, a description of either the landowner, the affiliate church or some historical article of interest. Mark also gathered information from a multitude of different sources all referenced in a resource section. He does not claim to have found all the cemeteries in Beaver County but all but a couple of the cemeteries included in this guide have given up the forgotten secrets of their past. A must for every Beaver County researcher! 8.5x11. Paper. 174pp. $20.00
