			AKIN CEMETERY

DIRECTIONS:  From Bradford, go down the old 45 higway.  Where it meets
the bypass at Idlewild, go left.  This road crosses railroad tracks and
then parallels them.  Parallel to the tracks on the left, there is a road
you can turn on to.  Go down this road past Idlewild Church, Pounds
Cemetery, and a sharp curve to the left.  After going down this sharp left
curve, there is a road on the left at a right curve.  Take this road.  Down
the road on the right is where the Akin Cemetery was.

This cemetery is no longer in existence.  It was on the land owned by
G.A. (possibly George A.) Akin in the late 1800s.  Once said to be very
large with possible over 30 tombstones, the land is now under cultivation.
It is possible that George and his wife are buried here as well as other
Akin family members.
