Garber Mennonite Cemetery
Menges Mills, York County, Pennsylvania

Lat: 39° 51' 27"N, Lon: 76° 53' 46"W

Contributed by Bill Brick, Aug 31, 2004 [chairman@pa.net]. Total records = 169.

From Spring Grove PA, 2.5 mi. west on the Old Hanover Rd. to the village of Menges Mills. The cemetery is behind Garber's Meeting House on the left.

This cemetery is owned and maintained by the Garber Mennonite Meeting House Church and it is in fair condition. The earliest burials are in the early 1800s, with the most recent burial in 1998.

The older section of the cemetery had at least 7 missing headstones, 9 that were unreadable and 16 which were only heavily weathered fieldstones bearing initials, some having only a year inscribed.

This is a complete record from when I walked and read all existing and legible tombstones in Mar and Apr of 1999.
