    1. [PABUTLER-L] Brewster Cemetery

    3. I sent the following email yesterday, and it was returned to me because the address was wrong. But I got a call from a Dunn descendant who says that Mt. Chestnut cemetery may very well be the Brewster cemetery since the Dunns and the Brewsters were very close and the Dunn farm was very close to Mt. Chestnut. So now the next question: Does anyone have access to cemetery records for the old UP cemetery in Mt. Chestnut? Jacob Marion Thompson died in March 1899; even if his name doesn't show up in records, can we find records of burials by dates? Finally, here is the original email: Hi, everyone, Am still looking for traces of Brewster Cemetery and have recently come across some Brewsters that may have been related by marriage to my great grandfather, Jacob Marion Thompson, who is supposed to have been buried in the Brewster Cemetery. Jacob's mother- in- law was Mary Ann Dunn Jones. Does anyone have knowledge of where the following may have lived around Center Twp.: Joseph Brewster and Jane Dunn Alexander Brewster (1840-1908, U.P. Church) and Delilah Albert (d. 1906) Their Children: Brewsters: Wilson Curtis Preston Albert Alexander Mitchell (Allegheny) Laura Adellah Heber John Benjamin Benton (next farm) Minnie Jane (Cranmer) Edwin Lawrence Maniford Emmett (Queen's Junction) Charles Oscar (home farm) Where are these Brewsters buried? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Nancy

    3. Nancy, No, noone has been able to find the Mt. Chestnut Cemetery records. And That would not be in Center Township, it is in Franklin Township. One feeling locally, is that the Brewster Cemetery is the one also known as the Church of God Cemetery near the corner of Brewster and Benbrook Roads. We feel that there are more interrments than what is listed in the cemetery index and that the people you are hunting for just didn't have headstones or they had disappeared before the 1970's. Pat
