Larrie, There is a Pine Grove Cemetery (and church) in Union Parish. I'll get directions, or maybe Dorothy Gray knows. Also note that it could also be in Claiborne Pa. I'm not sure where the line is. I have ALOT of family there, and have been there many times. Hope this helps. Gina >Hi Listers: > >I just received a copy of the pension application from my great grandfather, >Jefferson B. SPIER.
