This past Saturday I learned there is another cenetery called Kauffman-Oyster Farm Cem which is located along Lamb's Gap Road. This is a very small cemetery with 9 burials and 7 are Kauffman and two Rupp, because the one Kauffman daughter married a Rupp. Two things, whoever was asking about the Oyster Cem at 32nd and Market Streets, Camp Hill, do you also have Kauffmans in your records? This cemetery was known as the Oyster Farm and was owned by the estate of Margaret Oyster. Bob robert.e.troup@verizon.net My Website: http://www.tribalpages.com/tribes/mapleave
Bobby, I do not have Kauffmans in my information, but I do have one Oyster/Eyster. I believe it was Elizabeth married a Bowman in Camp Hill. I am not familiar with the cemetery you mentioned. Did you visit it, or find a reference to it? For all those who helped me with the Oyster Point cemetery, it appears that the cemetery was on the west side of 32nd St. which is now Route 15 (runs in from of the Camp Hill Mall), between Market Street/Carlisle Pike and Trindle Rd. There is now a Pier One and a gas station there. At minimum the stones were moved to the Camp Hill Cemetery around 1900 - 1910, and I assume the caskets, but unfortunately, that didn't always happen. What a shame... Thanks for all the help in locating the site!
