This cemetery is located on Allister Ridge.  From Pine Grove, go up to Barker and turn left and go to the top of Barker Hill.  Turn left and go 1.1 miles.  There will be a house on the left.  Turn to the right and there is an old dirt road there.  Follow this road to the top of the knoll which is about 3/10 of a mile.  Cemetery read in April 1999 by Vicky and Pete VanDyne and Tom Fankhouser.  It was updated May 5, 2006 by Nora and Bonnie Hostuttler and Phyllis and Amanda Cross.  Additional information added by Karen Hucko Jan 2008
