    1. Re: [PACARBON] Am I missing cemeteries? Beaver Meadows - Audenried

Jeansville, not Junedale! I visited the cemetery in Jeansville today. It is older, mid-19th century. It appears there has been only one new burial in 2006. Many of the names are Welsh surnames, with many stones stating the person was born in Wales. I didn't find any of my relatives on the stones, but it would be good pickings for those of Welsh-Protestant ancestry. My folks were Irish-Catholics who lived in Wales before coming to Audenried. The church in Jeansville - I didn't copy the name - serves Jeansville and Audenried, according to a sign that I read as I drove by. I'll bet some of the burials are from Beaver Brook as well. I did visit Junedale and found no cemetery ... never did have one, according to one of the locals. There is a cemetery in Trescow, but that is a newer cemetery with many burials from the 1920s on ... visited that one too. St. Mary's, Beaver Meadows, is already on-line, with none of my ancestors there. I'm beginning to concede that my folks are in unmarked graves. I think the fact of reburials in McAdoo regarding the number of graves in St. Pat's, Beaver Brook, added to the Jeansville cemetery burials probably account for the 1880 Census figure for the number of folks living in Beaver Brook and the absence of graves in Beaver Brook's St. Pat's. Thanks for the pointer, Walter. I appreciate your help. Joe
