I have a few questions about some rural cemeteries in western Bradford County: Checkerville Cemetery A note on the Tri-Counties cemetery page for Berrytown Cemetery says "Most graves believed to have been moved to Checkerville in South Creek Township". Does anyone know when the gravestones/coffins were moved from Berrytown, and the reason for the move? The distance between the cemeteries is about 2 miles. Columbia Cross Roads My 4th great-grandparents, John and Anna (Weller) McClelland, were buried in a Columbia Cross Roads cemetery that was reportedly washed away in a flood, in the mid-1800s. Does anyone know where the old cemetery was located or when the flood occurred? The earliest recorded burial at the nearby Fries Cemetery is 1842. Fries Cemetery This cemetery consists of a large mound of earth about 100 feet long, 30 feet wide and 10 feet high which is a very unusual shape for a cemetery. The large mound is in the middle of a flat field, so the earth was apparently brought in from another area. Does anyone know the reason for the unusual shape of Fries Cemetery? Paul Newell
