    2. Hello Carolyn, Would you kindly post the PA Series Number, Volume and page numbers for everyone as you mentioned information on burials in the Northern Cemetery from 1923 appearing in these volumes. Thanks Judy On 04/24/13, Carolyn Leonard<carolynleonard@me.com> wrote: Hi Nancy, Yes, I counted 30 that are listed in both cemeteries and I am still working with Findagrave (FAG) to straighten it out. As I said previously, > There have always many errors and much confusion about the two cemeteries, Northern and Southern. Some of the people are listed in both places. I have corresponded with findagrave about the problem but am not sure the listings are all straightened out yet.(It is not - new count last night shows there are still 30 duplicates.) I guess many people did not realize there were two different listings and just entered them wherever they chose. One of the volunteers who entered most of the ones in the Southern (Youngs) cemetery has since died and that complicates matters a little. I have to prove they are correctly in the Northern, which is where most of our people chose to be buried since it was next to their church. I have several different references I am using: 1. A list of the northern cemetery in the Pennsylvania Archives from 1923 (haven't found one there for the Southern) 2. Arthur Weaner's list 3. Willora Glee's lists for both cemeteries 4. My own list and photos (not all posted yet) from walking both cemeteries in 2004 and 2011. > Here is a hot link to the NORTHERN Low Dutch Cemetery sometimes called OSBORNs: [1]http://goo.gl/jGLhz > Here is a hot link to the SOUTHERN Low Dutch Cemetery sometimes called YOUNGs: [2]http://goo.gl/cLNo0 It will help if others send FAG a notice of the duplication too. If you see an error, click on the "edit" tab at the top right of the memorial page, enter the correct info and send. The person who is responsible for maintaining that memorial will receive the message. I am not responsible for all of them.
