Several months ago, when I was in town, I went to the Delaware County Historical society to try to find some information. I pored over all of the cemetery books there but found no record at all of the ancestors I was looking for. Unfortunately, I don't know what religion they were - that was one of the things I was hoping to find out. Apparently I'm going to have to expand my search outside of the county. Since I don't live in the area, I'm not familiar enough to be able to guess where to start looking. Does anyone have any idea where else someone living in Upper Darby might have been buried? The name I'm looking for is Pyott. James Pyott who died in 1825, his wife Rose who died in 1832, and Richard Pyott who died around 1872. Thanks, Mary

Just to mess you up further!!! First I thought you should look at Chester Co. But then I remembered that my Gt Gt grandfather died in 1804, having lived in Upper Darby, and he is buried in Blockley Baptist Church Cem in now Philadelphia! It was just across the line from Upper Darby! And I only know that he was buried there because a genealogist was walking down the street years ago and saw workmen loading tombstones on a truck from a cemetery. He asked what they were doing and got permission to copy a lot of the names and dates before they got hauled away and the cemetery became a parking lot or something! My John Tyson, his wife and his daughter were recorded. Praise the Lord.
