Stump Burial Ground, North Heidelberg Township, PA

This is a private burial ground in North Heidelberg township. It is located about a half mile southward of Bernville in Berks County. It is a few hundred yards from the junction of the Northkill Creek and the Tulpehocken Creek, along the road leading to Bernville.

There are several graves without tombstones, one of them probably being that of John Stump who in 1743 had warranted to him the tract of land on which that burial ground is located, and who is very likely the father of the John Stump buried there.
