Kathy, I made no reference to you doing a poor job or any such complaint I only mentioned that you were working with what other people had submitted to you. Charles tossed up the idea that I should ask you where these were all located and If I am local and haven't a clue where some of these are why should I think you would? I think if you re read this you'll see that is what I meant. I never insinuated your work was substandard Nor was I complaining only seeking information. about the list I mentioned. If you didn't do the list I was referring to anyway why take offense when none was implied? I will look at the newer link when I get a chance. Melissa In a message dated 3/14/2009 4:44:18 P.M.

I have no idea who created this list and have never verified the contents for accuracy. This list is never updated. The link Charles provided is the most current listing that I know of. If you feel there is something in error, please feel free to send me a correction. This list is maintained and updated solely by me. I am sure it isn't free of errors, but I do the best I can with what I have to work with. There are 27 cemeteries in Hellam Township, some of which are no longer in existence. Since you live so close to the York County Historical Trust, I would suggest you make the short drive and ask Lila where the cemeteries are located. She is the most knowledgeable person on this subject. While it is true that I don't live in Hellam township, that does not prevent me from contributing data that certainly benefits many other researchers. I do think contributing is much more productive than complaining.

Kathy does not. What is on this list was submitted by fellow researchers. But names, locations and townships are not all correct in a lot of instances which is why I think perhaps they were submitted by folks who may have guessed at the names or perhaps over the years they were changed to something else. This is a common happening around here. A church or cemetery may have been nicknamed after the family who donated the ground or a family cemetery who's changed hands when the farm sold. After going down the list of cemeteries in York Co.@ USGenweb ( _http://files.usgwarchives.net/pa/york/cemeteries/cemlist.tx t_ (http://files.usgwarchives.net/pa/york/cemeteries/cemlist.tx t) ). I discovered there are a lot more cemeteries than I ever imagined in Hellam Township. I am wondering now if anyone knows where they are located. If so I would love directions to them. Looking for where abouts of the following. Houston (aka Knaub), Huber Kindig, Libhart Pine Swamp Snyder Stone Church Strong Roth Also there is a cemetery shown on an old ADC map I have which sits along the south side of Route 30. According to the map it appears to be situated in a constructed area just before Burgs Lane overpass where WSBA is. From 462 take Keeney Lane to Susquehanna Plaza Drive. Just after the turn you'll see a big green fenced in area. From Rt 30 side you can see a lot of construction debris inside the fence. I am afraid to say I believe this is the cemetery. years ago I stopped and asked at the local businesses if anyone knew where the cemetery was and if this was it. No one knew. Does anyone know?
