    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: mcfarlandfamily Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.counties.monroe/1154.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Much of my family is buried there. My mom attended as a child, my aunt still does. Unfortunately, the fire in the 1960s took care of the records that the church held. Thankfully, the newer records were mostly spared by a quick thinking firefighter in the latest fire. They are currently being restored, according to the Times News. They don't even have reliable records of where old burials took place in the cemetery, so they've had to close the whole center to burials so they don't disturb anyone! It's a big disappointed to me because that church and cemetery are a huge part of my history. All I have are a few certificates handed down through generations. The only suggestion I've had is to see if any of the libraries have pastoral records. So far I've had no luck on that route. I've checked Dimmick & Easton so far. Give me a week or two to be done with school (I teach) and I can see what pastor names you may be seeking based on the few records I have.
