Susan, I suspect this cemetery is the Centre Cemetery of Clearfield Co. www.pa-roots.com/~clearfield/townships/decatur/centreumc.html

Hi Scott, Don't have any info on the BARGER surname, but have a photo of a DUNKLEBARGER grave stone from the Centre Hall Cemetery. Could the name have been shortened at some point? Regards, Paul

I have two Bargers in my Centre County family tree. The first is Charlotte Mildred BARGER (1917-1990) m. Milton Edward GLOSSNER (1913-1985). He was the s/o John Lott GLOSSNER and Cora BARNER. Their children were David Craig GLOSSNER and Judith Anne GLOSSNER. The second is Henry Lee BARGER (1860-1926) m. Nancy Jane WALKER (1866-1906) on 12/30/1866 in Moshannon, PA. She was the d/o Jacob WALKER and Mary ECKLEY. Do you know the parents of Charlotte Mildred BARGER and/or Henry Lee BARGER? If you would like further information on the lineages of Milton Edward GLOSSNER or Nancy Jane WALKER, just let me know. Thanks!

I am emailing the appropriate localities with the obituary of my Lyonel AYRES. You will see that his career, etc., touches on whatever list is receiving this obituary. I hope to have it posted on appropriate websites, also. Thanks each group, and all individuals, who have helped me in this. Particular thanks goes to "Twiggy" -- a member of one of these lists. Vince Summers ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Obituary of Lyonel Ayres Duluth Herald, Saturday, November 25, 1939. (Also on front page Duluth News-Tribune) (but reduced-length article there) Had Long Civic, Masonic Record L. AYRES, 81, DIES ------- Funeral Is Set for 2 P.M. Monday in Temple ------- Long prominent in Masonic ac- tivities, at the Head of the Lakes and throughout the state, Lyonel Ayres, 81 years old, died in a Du- luth hospital yesterday following an illness of six weeks. Mr. Ayres came to the Head of the Lakes in 1885 and took part in numerous engineering and survey- ing projects in development of the [Photo Inserted] region. He resided at 15 East Kent road. Funeral services will be held at 2 p. m. Monday in the Lake Ave- nue Masonic temple. Palestine lodge, AF @ AM, will conduct serv- ices. The temple will be open at 1:45 p. m. Born Sept. 4, 1858, in Memphis, Tenn., Mr. Ayres received his early education in Centre county, Penn- sylvania, from a private tutor. His family moved to Philadelphia in 1872 and there he attended public schools, graduating in 1876 from the Philadelphia Central high school. After four years in the insur- ance business he joined his father in the mercantile business. In 1883 he accepted a position with the Great Northern railroad at Glen- dive, Mont., and while employed with the firm saw the development of the frontier. Mr. Ayres came to West Superior in 1885 to take charge of construc- tion of rail yards and passenger station. The same fall he super- vised construction work on the waterfront in Duluth. He accepted the position of as- sistant city engineer for Duluth under City Engineer James Fowler in 1886 and served under six chief engineers, during which time he had charge of construction of the city's sewer system. He supervised construction of a drydock for the American Ship Building Co. in Superior in 1900 and 1901, and in the latter year joined the Duluth Engineering Co. During the next 14 years he di- rected construction of municipal improvements in cities and villages throughout the northern part of the state, as well as supervising general land surveys and platting townsites for the territory. Also during the period he was county surveyor for three consecutive terms. In 1915 he was appointed city engineer by the late Commissioner of Public Works James A. Farrell, serving for four years. About that time he acquired an interest in the Duluth Engineering Co. and was affiliated with that firm ever since then. During his Masonic career, Mr. Ayres held numerous high offices in the order. He was a life mem- ber of the American Society of Civil Engineers, the Minnesota Surveyors and Engineers society, the Duluth Engineers club, the Du- luth Chamber of Commerce, the National Geographic society and the American Forestry association.

Is there any one whom I can request to search the newspaper archive for an obituary on Mary MARTIN. She was born in 1831 and in the 1900 census she was living in Hawk Run. All other relatives were buried in the Philipsburg Cemetery. Unfortunately I do not know the death year, but the 1900 census says she was 69 years of age so I would guess she didn't live too long after that. She had sons name Richard, James and Thomas LONG. She was born in England and had previously been married to James Long. I would be willing to pay a reasonable sum to obtain a copy of any obit that could be found. Thank you Orleata, So. California

Eagle Cemetery is in Boggs Twp., Centre Co., PA. From the Milesburg Exit (No. 23) on I-80, go North on Route 150/220 (toward Lock Haven). Before long there will be a road for Curtin Village on your right. Take this road (you should go over a narrow bridge you can't see the other side of). Wind through Curtin Village, past the church and graveyard, and you will come out on the old Route 220. I can't remember whether you then turn left or right but I think you turn right. The cemetery is up on the hill. You can't see it from the road, but there is a white sign that says "Eagle Cemetery" at the entrance to the access road. I hope this helps. Grandma Barger was one of our oldest inhabitants. She has no headstone but her husband, who was a veteran of 1812, has one in the Eagle Cemetery. It is presumed she rests in the unmarked space beside him.

Richard, The Black Oak Cemetery, Worth Twp, is accessible in this manner: Coming down U.S. Route 322 from Philipsburg to Port Matilda, the cemetery will be on your left, on a hill, behind the Black Oak United Methodist Church. Along with my grandparents, I recorded it in 1997, and it is in the possession of the Centre County Genealogical Society awaiting publication. It has about 25 rows of graves, and the rows go up the hill, which is quite steep. You can park in the church parking lot. Black Oak is very neatly mowed and well maintained, but be careful, as I did see a snake there in the past. You cannot access the cemetery coming up from Port Matilda to Philipsburg as Route 322 is divided and the westbound lanes do not come near the church. Only by driving on the eastbound lanes can you turn into the church lot. If you are on U.S. 322 West, get on the eastbound lanes at Reese Hollow Road and Flat Rock Exit and I think you should be able to find it. Hope this helps.

Judy - Is "Walter Sellars" (b: ?; d: ?) one you have any info on? I have him marrying Bertha Boalich (b: 3 Jan 1867 in Osceola Mills; d: 10 Jan 1883 in Osceola Mills) on 7 Feb 1882 in Philipsburg, Centre Co, PA. Bertha died, according to her obituary, in her parent's (Thomas F. and Elizabeth (nee Hunter) Boalich) home in Osceola Mills, PA. Bertha is buried in the Thomas F. Boalich family plot in the Umbria Cemetery in Osceola Mills. Haven't been able to find any information about Walter Sellars either before or after the marriage. Any help would be appreciated.

Sue, I re-checked Mary Belle Lontz's records of the County cemeteries and find that I overlooked Milesburg as it was not grouped together in the index with the other Boggs Twp cemeteries. It is listed separately. Anyhow, yes, I find the John Turner & Wm Turner graves, but don't think these dates match yours. (I apologize for having deleted your earlier e-mail with the dates.) Here's what I just found -- John Turner, b ca 1741, d 12/16/1822, 81y Wm Turner, b ca 1769, d 3/14/1833 "Aunt Pollie" 9/12/1781 - 10/30/1857 "Aunt Peggie" 10/6/1789 - 10/14/1861 Silas B. Turner, d 10/2/1846, 41 These are the only Turner records recorded in this work for the Milesburg cem. I trust this is helpful. Fred Houts, Brooklyn Center MN

Paul and list, The Milesburg Cemetery was established in 1793 at the same time Milesburg was laid out. I would assume the land was given by the Miles family for use as a community burial ground. Thus it was not associated with a church and there are no known burial records. That is not to say, however, that if the local churches buried their dead in it they might have kept a record of that. The churches in Milesburg going back that far include a Baptist Church, Presbyterian Church, and Methodist Church. Milesburg Cemetery's oldest gravestone dates to 1794 and the last burial was about 1909. The cemetery is believed to be completely full. It had lain in disrepair for some years before having been cleaned up by Scouts in 1980. It is in a good state of upkeep today.

Hi All, Does anyone know which church has the records for the Milesburg Cemetery? I agree with Karen, those stones are very old and mostly unreadable. Regards, Paul

I'm trying to find information on John HARTLEY. His Civil War pension papers state that he was born in CENTRE, Penna. He was probably born about 1840-1845. He married Sarah Sabina CUPPLES in Newton Hamilton, Mifflin Co., PA and then returned to Centre County (near Bellefonte) where at least one of his three children were born (in 1859). I cannot find him in the 1850 census. He was captured at the Battle of the Wilderness and died at Andersonville Prison. Any help greatly appreciated! I'm really at a dead end here! Linda

Susan and list, I have just returned from an extended trip but will attempt to answer your question as best I am able. The Milesburg Cemetery was read in 1928 or so by the late Adella Spangler. When we (CCGS) read it a few years ago -- my grandfather and I doing the actual readings -- we had a copy of the Spangler information along with us. When a stone was unreadable we would consult the Spangler listing and see if it looked like that was what it said. We were able to make out many stones that way to at least identify location. There are no lot or burial records for that graveyard so the recording of the stones and their locations, as we have done, was vital for accessibility of the information to future generations. The Boggs Township/Milesburg Borough book is not anticipated in the extremely near future, but it is in progress. I may have a listing for that cemetery somewhere here, but as I have come home to literally hundreds of emails I cannot now take the time for an indepth search. What I can tell you to do is write to the Centre County Library in Bellefonte. I do remember the John Turner stone (Rev Vet). There is a new, replacement stone on the grave, probably done by a descendant because the old one could no longer be deciphered.
