I didn't know this was known as a Quaker Cemetery; I thought it was Mennonite. If this is the same cemetery that is known as Sherrick's and Alte Menst, it was in good condition when I last visited it in the early 1980's which was after Fischer's visit. Although it is close to Bullskin Twp, I believe it is actually in Upper Tyrone Twp. or maybe Everson Borough. I grew up in Everson and Bullskin Twp begins between Everson and Pennsville.

I was down there last year and it was in real good shape so some one is taking care of it.I lived here all my life and never knew it was there until Scottie mentioned it. I wasn't a back roads traveler until my daughter got me into this ancestery life, now in the summer I'm always on a back road somewhere.
