Wayne County PAGenWeb Cemeteries
Please excuse the construction process going on with the cemeteries! I am in the process of checking all cemeteries against the index and redesigning the index pages for faster use....you may notice different layouts on the cemetery pages, and the index pages will not all be in the same format for a few weeks while I work on this project. I believe we will end up with a more user friendly cemetery database in the end. Thanks for your patience!

Wayne County Cemeteries & Bordering Cemeteries in Other Counties (listed after the Wayne County Section) 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.

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. |
