Hi Hal: >From Volume 4 of the Mercer Co., PA Cemetery Inscriptions, p. 100: Methodist Cemetery, Pine Twp. This cemetery is located at the intersection of TR 173 and the Cranberry Road, north of Grove City, PA. There was a Methodist Church here in the 1873 Atlas. It lists only Janet Smith Milner 1858-1898 >From Volume 5, p35: Woodland Cemetery, Pine Twp. This cemetery is across 173 from the Methodist Cemetery, north of Grove City, PA. I can give you the name & phone # of the man who keeps the books (the burial log and records) on this cemetery. I had to go to him to find the marker for one of my Tinker cousins. The marker was not located anywhere near where Vol. 5 said it was. Her husband was buried next to her, but without a marker. He was not mentioned in Vol. 5, but the man had the record of his burial. It seems to me that a Milner family moved from Grove City, PA to Palo Alto, CA in the early 1950's where they owned and operated a motel and joined the Methodist Church. I have met them. My mother tutored one of the Milner children in Grove City, PA in the 1940's. It lists: Frank Milner 1860-1930 Betty M. 1871-1951 (on the same marker) Leonard B. Milner 1892-1924 Margaret 1892-1921 (on the same marker) Leonard and Frank's markers are adjacent to each other. Jim Sterrett/Palo Alto, CA sterrett@ix.netcom.com 650-948-2726
