I know of three cemteteries in Bear Creek. "The Pines Cemetery" is directly off State Route 115 near the Bear Creek Dam/Bear Creek Villge. Another is the Lewis Family Cemetery, located off State Route 115 and White Haven Road. The third cemetery is located on Route 115 near the entrance to the Pennsylvania turnpike. Most individuals buried in the small but elaborate Lewis Cemetery were members of that family. The Bear Creek Historical Society may have more info. The Pines is an old, small cemetery. The third is more modern and is still active.
