About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The Old Dutch Church in the Beaver Creek valley, also called Beaver Creek Congregation is one of the county's oldest shared union churches by the Reformed and Lutheran congregations. It was built of logs about 20 feet square with the door facing west and the small cemetery at the bottom of the hill. Today that is on Rt. 896 at Iva Road. The oldest notation for the Reformed Church is in German language an infant baptism of Catherine born 9/l/1740 and baptised 5/31/1741, daughter of Henry and Esther Eckman. The next is infant baptism 2/25/1744 for Johannes, son of Johannes and Maria Eckman. The earliest record for the Lutherans is in Lancaster County Historical Society Volume 9, p 179, "On 5/1/1730 the Lutheran Pastor Johann Casper Stoever baptised children at Millcreek, Pequea and Beber Creek ... Also, "On 3/23/1746 William Phillipse had six children baptised at the Dedication of the Beber Krick Church
