Eden Cemetery

Goshen Township

Clearfield County, PA

Eden Cemetery is located on Knobs Road, approximately 3 miles from Rt, 879 about one mile down river from Shawsville, Clearfield County, PA.

I copied all names that were in the Eden Cemetery Record Book that Glen Amon has.
It was started in 1935 and is the only record of burials in Eden Cemetery. It is not 100% complete, or accurate,
especially on earlier burials. The following are supposedly in order by rows beginning at the church.
The first row is the one closest to Knobs Road at the front corner of the church. There are a good many
unmarked graves and also I believe, a few tombstones that are not on this
list.  I added the comments that are in parentheses.  There is no map
of this cemetery showing grave locations. Some of the graves furthest away
from the church are in the so-called new part of the Cemetery. I'm not sure if they are all included in the Record Book.
