Compiled from records by E. M. Whetsel

Directions: From Uniontown, take the New Salem Road which runs west off Rt. 40 (at the Sheetz Gas Station). Go about 5 miles and at the stop sign in New Salem, turn left onto South Mill Street. Go about 2/10 mile and at the foot of the hill turn right onto Ralph-New Salem Road making a switchback turn. Travel less than 1/10 mile and turn left onto the dirt road which bears a "No Trespass" sign. Drive up the hill less about a 1/10 mile and stop at the "T" in the dirt road. There are 3 cemeteries here: Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Catholic Cemetery is straight ahead beyond the top of the "T", St. Mary Assumption Byzantine Catholic Cemetery is below the top of the "T" and to the left of the dirt road you entered on, St. Procopius Roman Catholic Cemetery is below the top of the "T" and to the right of the dirt road you entered on.
