Without her tremendous aid and support this site

From the History of Clearfield Co., Pennsylvania 1887 by Lewis Cass Aldrich page 58
"A short distance above the place where William Bloom settled, and at the point called the "pee wee's nest," there lived the family of Robert Cresswell. They were poor, and had a large number of children. Cresswell died after a few years, and the balance of the family moved to Huntingdon. Robert Cresswell's funeral was the first that occurred in the county."
This is the oldest cemetery in the area, and it is still actively selling plots.
The current caretaker & owners are Don & Barb Curry. They were deeded the land by the last surviving McClure descendant, having kept the property in the family all these years. The Curry's may be reached at (814) 236-0360. Note: The Cemetery Association is currently seeing new caretakers (August 2004)
