This private cemetery has not been used as a burial ground since 1862, which is the latest inscription as shown on tombstone of Mary Troxel, who died July 13, 1862.
The farm on which this cemetery is situated was owned by M. Troxel in the year 1867, as shown in the Atlas of Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, from actual surveys and under the direction of S.N. & D.G. Beers, published by A. Pomeroy, #320 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, 1867, and entered according to Act of Congress in the year 1867, by A. Pomeroy in the Clerk's Office of the District Court of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
The cemetery is situated in a field to the right of route #819, traveling from Mount Pleasant to West Overton. It is enclosed with a cement wall, and is approximately 40' x 40' in size. The stones are in bad condition, many of them broken and scaled off; not legible.
The farm now is owned by a Mr. Lemmon (1947), whose address is R.D.#2, Mount Pleasant, Penna., and is about one-half mile from Mount Pleasant, which road is the main thoroughfare between Mount Pleasant and Connellsville, Fayette County, Penna.
These Cemetery Records were copied November 19, 1946 by two Members of Braddock Trail Chapter, National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution, Mount Pleasant, Penna.
