    3. Union Cemetery is just about 1 block off Rt. 8 (formerly Rt. 2) at New Manchester (formerly named Pughtown). This is an extremely small community and you must turn off the Rt 8 at the peak of the hill in this town...coming from Chester will be a right turn...coming from New Cumberland will be a left turn. The Presbyterian Church sits in the first turn of the road, and the very next turn is where "Union Cemetery" is. I have relatives in this cemetery, namely my mother. Easiest way to tell you how to reach New Cumberland Cemetery, is same Rt. 8 to that town, go up on Ridge Avenue (coming from Chester), 1st street past the post office you turn left and go over the hill, at the foot of hill cross small concrete bridge that spans the creek, keep to left and go up the hill (cemetery hill). At the top on the right you will see New Cumberland Cemetery. I have family in this cemetery too, namely my grandfather. Hoping this will be clear to you..if not you can e-mail me . Good Luck
