    3. Francine, If this is the cemetery I think it is (I have heard it referred to as the Old Lycoming Burial Grounds), the stones are no longer there. I asked about this cemetery a few months back, so you could probably search the Lycoming mailing list for all the replies. Also, here is a link to an article I found while searching for this cemetery. http://wolnewberry.com/newsletter/sacredground.htm Briefly, and if I remember correctly, the cemetery went neglected and fell into disrepair. They moved the stones and made the area a park. The Lycoming County Genealogy Society has a listing in a book, but for the life of me I can't remember the title. When I was visiting there last year, the man helping me knew exactly what I was talking about, pulled the book out and showed me. I'm sure if you contacted them they would be able to assist you. Hope this helps.
