MEASON FAMILY CEMETERY DUNBAR TOWNSHIP, FAYETTE COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA

Read by: Daughters of The American Colonists, Chief Tanacharison Chapter, Connellsville, Pennsylvania, 1956

The Meason Family cemetery was located on the Meason estate, east of current Rt. 119 N, near the township line of Dunbar and North Union townships. Some time after this 1956 reading, in the name of progress, strip mining and construction threatened to destroy the final resting places of the Meason family. The graves were removed to Oak Grove Cemetery in Uniontown. The names marked with an asterisk are known to be in Oak Grove at this time (2005). Those without an asterisk are believed to be there but do not have a stone to confirm this.
