Directions: Take 150 North from Bellefonte to Milesburg. In Milesburg make a right turn onto Market Street, two blocks on left across from fire house.

Overall Condition: Good.

Notes:

Historical Status: The land for this site was originally donated by Col. Samuel Miles in 1804, though Linn reports burials had taken place here since at least 1794. The age range and community make-up of this yard match both the definitons for State and National historical importance.

Preservation Recommendation: Not sure who cares for cemetery. It is being taken care of quite well, and the caretakers may only need occasional assistance due to the site's aging stones.
