Field searched and photos submitted by Herman R "Buck" Seibert Jr. October 12, 2006
Gosney, Charles-16 May 1817-29 Jul 1832 son of John & Kabil Gosney
Gosney, John-2 Jul 1794-son of Benjamin and Sarah Applebee Gosney
Note by William R Stevens:
"Since starting this I do find a record where it is indicated that John Gosney
married
Isabel Yelton December 15 1815. Therefore what I have shown as Kabel should be
Isabel. The stone was difficult to read."
Since I find no other burial records for John and Isabel, it appears they are
buried in this cemetery. The graves are marked with field stones. Dated 28 May
1978"

Note by Herman R. "Buck" Seibert:
I visited this location on Oct 12, 2006. I was able to find the graves but only the headstone for Charles was readable. Another stone is lying face down and I did not attempt to turn it over to read the inscription.
GOSNEY, Charles – 16 May 1817-29 Jul 1832 son of John and Isabel Gosney.
This correlates with the note of Mr. Stevens. I believe there are more than two graves in this location. A few more fieldstones were found standing on end.
