Came to Penn. on the ship "Halifax" in 1753. Married Hannah Frye. Moved to NC where he was a farmer. He fought the Cherokee in the Revolutionary War. The GPS coordinates are wrong. The actual cemetery is just off of Miller Mill Rd on Crafton Farm Rd. There is a parking pad half way up the drive to the farm. Park there. The cemetery is in the woods and up the hill a bit. Maybe 500-600 ft. Looking at google earth today (5/10/19) it seems that the hill has been cleared of trees. I hope they didn't disturb the graves!
