Harold, I understand the problem about overgrown cemeteries, It is truly a shame. I have several that have Carpenter family members that are now in that same condition. Fortunately, there are a lot of records that also provide the needed research information. I have just transcribed a genealogy report which had a few Tiffanys and also Stanton s that resided in Abington Township, in what are now Wyoming And Lackawanna Counties. If you could give us a few names, maybe that could lead us to the elusive cemetery you seek. Jack

Laurence, I have a family history of William Stanton, Sr. who married Rachael Goodrich. It's a family history that I started using Microsoft Word and have been adding to it as people contact me with new information. Right now this history consists of 159 pages. I have just the information you provided me on Eva Stanton who married George M. Lance and Cora Hinkley who married George Burton Lance and not a bit more. I wish I did have somthing you dont' have. I appreciate the time you took to share your LANCE connection to this STANTON family with me. Thank you!

The only child I have for them is Jackson Carl Lance. These people are buried in Clarks Green. 2. Next we come to the Hinkley folks.

George Burton Lance was born in 1876, but I've no idea where he is buried nor when he passed. I only know of ONE of NINE children the couple is said to have had. DARN, as George is my great uncle. Come out, come out, where ever you are! 3. Sickler of course rings bells as my grandmother was Grace E. Sickler who married ANTHONY LANCE. Grace was born April 21, 1874 married in 1895 to William B. Lance and passed in Seattle in 1951. Anthony was born in 1852 and passed in Nicholson, PA in 1931. Anthony was married to EMMA E.

Jack, I appreciate the effort you took to look up and list the three cemeteries that have Stanton's and Tiffany's buried in them. None of them appear to be the elusive cemetery my wife wants so desparately to find. She feels that, once her father passed away, nobody else took up his cause to keep the cemetery well trimmed and, thus, it became over grown with weeds, bushes, trees, grass and what have you. This cemetery might be just off of a road that is no longer used as a main road. We'll have to make another trip to the area and look some more.

If you happen to come across an old cemetery with any Tiffanys or Stantons in, please let me know. My wife's maiden name is Tiffany and she remembers as a child her parents driving up to the Nicholson area from Milton, PA to take care of a cemetery. She remembers it being right off of a road but not its exact location. We've been up to the Nicholson area twice this year but so fare we haven't found the right cemetery. -------Original Message------- From: S P <susqsue@yahoo.com> Sent: 06/05/03 03:36 PM To: PAWYOMIN-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [PAWYOMIN-L] Directions? > > Thank you very much!

Merry goes the time when the heart is young that's so young that so October 19 1882 Miss Mollie Hetfield Northmoreland, Wyoming County Pennsykvania. When other friends around thee and other Hearts are thine. then think oh think how lonely this throbbing heart of mine. Miss Mollie Hetfield False and true friends. 'Tis difficult within this world to find a faithful friend, On whom, throughout the scenes of life, We ever can depend. And often, often, have we thought this friend at last is found. till trial proves the mournful truth. Alas! we have him not: some there are those object is to gain their selfish ends, Declare and vow, in solemn times they are your steadfast-friends. But when their wishes for ends are gained When serving self is over Experience will teach us, they are our friend no more. And some there are we daily meet, Possessing winning grace, who by their act show you that they are friendly to your face, But - when you back to them is turned, they then expose your name, And strive to cover every act with slander and with shame, And then come those who always will of others tell you much; and 'tis my council unto all, that thy beware of such; for they who will of other speak, and tell you all they know, the expatiation is that they will speak the same of you, then if within the walks of life a faithful friend you find; Lavish upon him all your love And treat. O! treat him kind; For faithful friends upon this earth, Are fading day by day - Like moonlight - clouds away Mary Herfield December 25 `864 Mollie Hetfield is my name, single is my station, Wyoming is my dwelling place and heaven my salvation.

I am related to her by way of her mothers brother Arthur BentonClark,my g grandfather. the info I would be very interested in getting is the origin of the Butler in her mother's name. according to family members we are somehow related to Col.

Would appreciate any info. as I seem to be running in circles and would like to prove or disprove this family legend. Thanks so much . Ellen
