From the Bristol exit of the PA Turnpike, go north on Rt 13 for about
1/2 mile and exit on the right where the sign says Edgley Rd. Turn left
onto Edgley Rd., cross over Rt 13, then cross over Mill Creek Rd. Turn
right onto New Falls Road, where you will see the Golden Dawn Restaurant
right in front of you. Emilie UMC is about 1/8 mile on the right side
and the cemetery behind the church.
This cemetery is owned and very well maintained by the Emilie United
Methodist Church. It dates back to the mid 1800s. The overall condition
is good, although some of the older stones are broken or missing.
There are four sections in this cemetery. The first one being the oldest
section, which is located behind the chapel. In here the condition of
the stones in some cases is not that good.
The second section, rows 1-34, is divided into two areas. A-side being
on the left and B-side is on the right with a path from the back of
the chapel to the Burley Memorial Garden dividing them.
The third section is located in the center of the cemetery and is called
Burley Memorial Garden. This is where cremated remains are interred.
The fourth section contains rows 35 and up. It is located in the back
half of the cemetery behind the Burley Memorial Garden. This is the
newer section where markers are used instead of headstones. There is
also a center path that runs between the A-side and B-side, similar
to the second section.
I have compiled this transcription from tombstone inscriptions, sexton
records and comparing with previous transcriptions, during 2005-2006.
