not check the years 1824, 1825, or 1827. In 1826 he is listed on the same two tracts as1823 but his name is crossed out. I suspect the crossing out might have been amistake because he is back again on the same two tracts in 1828 and remains therethrough 1831. In 1828 we find also listed for the first time an Abraham <strong>Yoder</strong>, a singleman with no land, and this listing remains the same through 1831.In 1832 Henry is a farmer with no land, but now Abraham is a farmer on 280aand there is a new listing for Jacob <strong>Yoder</strong>, who is a single man and cordwainer. In 1833these three remain the same and there is another new listing for Daniel <strong>Yoder</strong>, single.In 1834, Jacob and Henry are as before, Abraham's land is reduced to 150a and Danielis crossed out. In 1835, Henry, Daniel and Jacob have moved to Buffalo Township.1836 is the same as 1835. In 1837 Henry and Daniel are crossed out and not listedanywhere else in the county, but Jacob is still in Buffalo Township. In 1838 Henry andDaniel are nowhere to be found but Jacob is still in Buffalo, and there also for the firsttime is Nathaniel, single. At this point I stopped.It is pretty clear that Henry <strong>Yoder</strong> either died or he left Union County in the springof 1837. There are no probate records or orphan's court records relating to Henry'sestate, but that isn't necessarily significant in light of the fact that Henry apparentlynever owned any real property. However, if he died here, I would assume he wouldhave been buried with his wife. In Laurelton Union Cemetery there is a tombstone forCatharine Seidle, wife of Henry <strong>Yoder</strong>, died February 19, 1831, age 55y, 5m, 12d. Sheis the only 19th century <strong>Yoder</strong> with a tombstone in western Union County (HartleyTownship, Borough of Hartleton and Lewis Township). Of course, it is possible thatHenry is buried here in an unmarked grave.However, I would have no doubt that the 1840 Henry <strong>Yoder</strong> in Wayne Township,Clinton County, PA is the same person as the 1830 Henry in Wayne Township,Lycoming County, PA. Clinton County was formed in 1839 from parts of Centre Countyand parts of Lycoming County and Wayne Township. Clinton County is right at thepresent border between Clinton and Lycoming.It is correct to assume that the first appearance in tax records as a single malewould result from reaching the age of 21. From the 1833 Hartley Township assessmentbook, one can see that names were arranged according to the first letter of thesurname, not according to location. Thus, it is not possible to use these records todetermine where the people lived.Finally, there is a <strong>Yoder</strong> Cemetery in Union County. This was undoubtedly theoldest cemetery in the western part of the county. I do not know why it was called the<strong>Yoder</strong> Cemetery, but I assume only because it was on <strong>Yoder</strong> land. I'm sure it was notjust a family cemetery because there are Cathermans known to have been buried there,which is what aroused my interest in the first place. Very little is known about thiscemetery because it was desecrated over 125 years ago and converted into farmland.After some research, I was able to determine its approximate location near the presentvillage of Millmont. I also talked to a Millmont resident who remembered that in the1930s someone had removed the remaining tombstones from a nearby ditch. I wasable to find a couple other people who recalled that incident because it raised a fuss.However, nobody seems to know what became of those stones. - Carl R. Catherman.M41 daughterborn
