Wayne County Cemeteries & Bordering Cemeteries
in Other Counties
There are close to 150 known cemeteries in Wayne County.
Many of these are old family cemeteries.
If you can add to this project, please help.
If you would like to add to the directions for
the cemeteries or help add to the database of the buried, please
send them to me.
This is not considered a complete
listing of burials unless specified at an individual cemetery that it
is complete as of a certain date.

Honesdale (Old)
|
This cemetery is known
as the Old Honesdale Cemetery or (erroneously) Old Methodist Cemetery.
It stood near a Methodist church but has always been the property of
the borough. The cemetery is not exactly on Chapel Street but
can be accessed that way. Chapel Street is a short street almost (but
not quite) directly opposite 10th street off the west side of Main Street
just past Borough Hall. It's on your left as you head north on
Main Street. Chapel runs from Main to Ridge Street and the old
church (now an apartment building) can still be seen on the right at
the corner of Ridge, and the cemetery is farther up the hill.
The Wayne County Historical Society has a transcription of gravestone
inscriptions from the 70s and 80s. Quite a few bodies were moved to
the newer Glen Dyberry Cemetery when it opened in 1860. |

Salem; From the Ledgedale Campgrounds,
cross the bridge, over Lake Wallenpaupack, straight ahead of you is
Indian Rocks Community. Stop at the stop sign. The road that crosses
in front of you is Ledgedale Road (aka SR 3006).From the stop sign you
can see the gate to the community. Cross the road, drive into the community
past the gate, make a left turn at the first street, which is Quaking
Aspen Lane. Drive to the end of the lane, you have reached Black Bear
Road, turn left on to it. The cemetery is on the left as soon as you
make your left hand turn. Since you can only reach the cemetery
by passing through the gate of the community of Indian Rocks, I would
recommend stopping at the real estate office to obtain a pass.
