Barnes Graveyard
Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, USA
This graveyard was in existence from about 1800 until about 1970 on a farm that changed ownership but was known as the Barnes farm. In 1970, the farm, owned at the time by the Shelly family, was sold to new owners who were unaware that the headstones were lying flat in a corner of a field. Sadly they were plowed under. Portions of the headstones have surfaced over the years. This compendium of headstones is developed based on a record made prior to the graveyard's demise. The current owner, who purchased the property in 1970, verified location and the recent history.
