    3. Hi--I noticed on the list that you mentioned the name Fassett. I live in Az. and have not been in much of Pennsylvania, but many of my grandfather's ancesters came from the Tioga-Bradford area, some having lived on Armenia Mountain in "Ceaseville, Kiffville and McIntosh Hollow". Can you tell me where that is?There is mention in a genealogy book I have (on the McIntosh-Kiff-Cease and related families) of the burial of Alexander Cease(1812-1891) and his wife Julia Ann McIntosh(1814-1869) .It says Julia is buried "on the old Burton Fassett Farm, Tioga County", and Alexander Cease is buried "with his wife in the old Cease Cemetary on the Fletcher farm near the Tioga County line." Is there a cemetary there known by both of these names, and is it a small one that has been incorporated into the cemetaries you mention or is it separate? Thank you far any information you may have.
