Picture of Vinca Minor commonly known as Periwinkle or Ground Myrtle. Usually is on or around most old cemeteries in this area. http://www.canr.uconn.edu/plsci/mbrand/v/vinmin/vinmin1.html Betty, made a couple more phone calls, working on information about your Green Farm and Cemetery. I have an appointment on Sunday to ask some questions of a man who lives near by there, on Reiser Road in fact. Please make a list of what you would like to know and email it to me. I'll try to get your questions answered. This gentleman is 75 or older, talking on the phone is difficult because his hearing is poor. You'll love this! His grandmother on his mother's side was Loretta Green she married a Strawbridge. His grandmother on his father's side was Rebecca Reeser. I did not say the cemetery was in bad shape. I said the tombstones were. The inscriptions are almost nonexistent. Many are cracked or have fallen over. According to the township tax collector and another octarian historian in the area, a boy scout troop cleaned that cemetery up a couple years ago or so. They were the ones who put the fence around it. The octarian historian said that cemetery should be indexed at the Crawford County Historical Society. It is still inside a pasture fence. The land is now owned by the Titusville District Justice, Amy Nicols and her husband. They build a new house on another section of the land sometime in the last few years. I couldn't get in touch with her tonight. She might know more of the history of her property. Talking with Mary Ralston, the 81 year old lady who writes the Troy Center News for the Titusville paper still, she had a teacher at the Diamond School that was a Mrs. Green. Her name was Bertha Cauvel Green. She came from Dempseytown and was married to Ernest Green. Ernest had a brother, Merle, who also lived in Diamond. Mrs. Ralston was interesting. She came originally from Franklin. Her father was Otis J. Skelley, who was once Sherriff. And she had an old aunt and uncle, Bill and Bertha Hawse, who used to live just above the Peters Cemetery in Venango County. As I said, make of list of what you want to know. I certainly enjoyed talking to these people, I learned some more I didn't know about the area and its people of the past and present. Cindy
