GRABLE CEMETERY---REDSTONE TOWNSHIP

Daughters Of The American Colonists, Chief Tanacharison Chapter, Connellsville, PA, 1956

GRABLE BURYING GROUND FAYETTE COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA

On the SUMEY FARM, in Center District, Redstone Township, is an unfenced and overgrown spot near the noted Canfield's Rocks known as Grable Burying Ground. On this neglected space there still protrudes from the clustering tangle, in 1930(*), fourteen inscribed grave markers and many fieldstones on the edge to show the beds of other forgotten sleepers.
