This is an old and abandoned family cemetery whose last known burial was in 1926. It is on the old Doweling property and is in a sad state of disrepair. It is overgrown with brush and there are trees that are overtaking a couple of the remaining markers. There are at least 10 unmarked graves and there are also about a half dozen graves marked only with fieldstones, which have no inscription. The current property owners are not happy with the upkeep state of this place, but are unable to keep it clear by themselves. They are trying to find a group or organization to help them restore this cemetery and clear the brush.
Directions:
From Kittanning, PA at the intersection of State Route 268 and Business Route 422, take Route 268 north for a distance of 2.83 miles to the intersection of Montgomery Road. Turn right on Montgomery road and follow it for 2.62 miles to the intersection of the Adrian-Reesdale road. At this intersection turn right again onto the Adrian-Reesdale Road and drive thru the village of Adrian. From this intersection drive a total of 2.88 miles to 1044 Reesdale road. If you get to French's Corner Road you went too far. Your destination is the 6th house, on the right, past the "New" Limestone/Reesdale Church of God. Pull in and request permission to walk over the fields, to the cemetery...the owners are very nice folks and do not hesitate to give permission.
