    3. Dear List Subscribers, Has anyone run across the name Sweeten (and the variant spellings) in any cemeteries or cemetery records in Philadelphia? I am looking for: James Sweeten, his brother George Sweeten, James' wife Eliza (? Clark ?) Sweeten, and their children: David Sweeten, Jane Sweeten, Anna Sweeten, and Rachel Sweeten (unfortunately I do not know if his daughters married or who they married).
