Beemer Cemetery is located on Newton-Ransom Blvd (SR 629) in Lackawanna County, Northeast of Pittston, Luzerne County, PA. From North Main Street in Pittston, take Narrows Rd (SR 3005) to Newton-Ransom Blvd (SR 629). Turn right on Newton-Ransom Blvd, and follow to Shaffers Corner. Beemer Cemetery is located approximately 3/4 of a mile past Shaffers Corner, on the uphill side of the first corner in the road.

The cemetery is very hard to see from the road. It had been mowed recently and was in fair condition when we were there. There was evidence that there are other grave sites that are not marked.

Dianna Beemer and I visited the cemetery on Sep 11, 2003, and collected all of the information from the tombstone inscriptions.
