Shamokin Cemetery Entrance


 

 

The Shamokin Cemetery has over 16,000 internments on the side
  of a mountain that spans 20 acres. The Cemetery is divided into
  Large Blocks which are sub-divided into Ranges. The Ranges are
  then divided into Lots.

   

Please Note:

   

1. Maps of the cemetery show where each block is, however
  each range and lot are not the same on each block.

 

2. Burials annotated Single Grave are located at the left
  side of the cemetery behind the mausoleum in Block XI. 
  Unfortunately, Most of these graves are unmarked and there
  is no way of knowing exactly where a specific burial is
  located.

 

3. Burials annotated "G.A.R. Circle" are located south of
  the mausoleum in Block VIII. This Block is named for the
  Guard of the Army Republic, and is known today as the
  Soldier’s Circle.

 

4. Not every Burial has a headstone.  When searching for a
  relative or ancestor does not yield a result sometimes
  looking at marked lots nearby will help you locate a burial site
 

5. If you are not sure if your ancestor has a headstone
Please contact me before visiting and I will give you the
names of people buried around/near your Ancestor
