Wilma: I was recently there, the main cemetery is located on the south side of Route 16 just as you enter Mercersburg and across the road from Marshall Academy. What you need to do is call or go to the funeral home , their name is : Lininger-Fries Funeral Home, telephone 717-328-2812they have all the records for that cemetery. Can't remember the street they are located on, but it's right off main street (rt. 16). There are also that I know of two very old nearby cemeteries one is the Seceder Cemetery off of Rt. 16, however with few excepts all the stones are gone, the other one that I know of it Slate Hill Cemetery, Church Hill Road, Kittchotinng Hist. Soc. I think has a record of the burials there.
