Ahh yes, finally. That did the trick. Thanks so much for all your time & help. Centre County doesn't look that much further from that. Does anyone know where the Ross Cemetery, Marengo, Centre County is? If ever I can get there I may as well make good use of the trip if it all can be done in a day.

I'm not familiar with the Ross Cemetery in Centre County, but to answer your question about going to Centre County from Clearfield County when you are at the Brisbin and Houtzdale Cemeteries, yes, you could get to all three in one day I would think. The dividing line between Centre Co. and Clearfield Co. is at Philipsburg which is shown on that map I sent the link. You would take Rt 322 and Rt 220 to State College, then pick up the Route 26 south from State College that is shown in the 'Directions' below. It's about 10 miles from Brisbin to Philipsburg, and then about 25 miles from Philipsburg to State College. http://www.rootsweb.com/~pacentre/graves.htm Centre County, PA Graveyards ROSS Ferguson Township. Directions: Take Route 26 south from State College. At intersection of Routes 26 and 45 in Pine Grove Mills, take Route 45 West 6.2 miles. Road sign for Pennsylvania Furnace, turn right. Go 3.6 miles. Ross United Methodist Church sits on a hill on the left, cemetery is adjacent to Church. Centre County Library Reference: Spangler Book 62, pgs. 41-45.
