Furman Burial Grounds
Tioga County, Pennsylvania, USA
GPS coordinates: 41.75480 - 77.52210
The cemetery is located in the township of Gaines (formally Shippen) Pennsylvania on State Highway 6 between the hamlets of Rexford and Manhattan.
The old burial ground, on the north side of the highway is just within the boundaries of State Land. Opposite on the south side of the highway the ground drops precipitously to the West Branch of Pine Creek below.
To reach the burial ground you have to walk up a short steep portion of hillside before the ground levels somewhat.
In the nearly 200 years since the area was first used as a burial ground trees have grown up among the graves and some have fallen and uprooted. The simple fieldstone markers are severely worn and damaged and if it was not known a cemetery was there they would appear to be randomly placed natural stones.
