Ann M. Brooks of Syracuse, New York wrote to us in 1999 when she came into possession of a listing of the cemetery. She graciously shared it with us, and we reproduce her letter here. We did not take any pictures, but you may visit the cemetery by following Route 268 toward Kittanning, turning left just before Cowansville, where a sign directs you to Sherrett and to Lock 9 and the power station. This is a scenic, winding road, and unless you have traveled it before, you will fear that you have lost your way several times before arriving at the cemetery. However, take heart and follow the marina signs. You will also see a sign for the Wattersonville Methodist Church, where the cemetery is located. Services are still held in this church, and the cemetery is tended and accessible. Most of the dates are from the mid-1800s through the early 1900s. We thank Ms. Brooks for her information and hope it is helpful. Following is a letter and the interment listing from Ms. Brooks dated 21 May 1999. She received a copy of the listing from Annabelle Shetler and Mildred Thomas dated July 1986.
