Old Chestnut Level Presbyterian Cemetery Tombstone Rubbings
Description
This collection contains gravestone rubbings of all graves before and including 1776 at Old Chestnut Level Presbyterian Cemetery, compiled by Elizabeth G. Caruthers in October 1967. The gravestones are all of Peach Bottom Slate, unless otherwise indicated. The rubbings have been placed in alphabetical order, but are color-coded to represent six decades from 1720-1776. The index shows the name on the gravestone and then row and lot number in the cemetery. A database is available in the library with all information from the rubbings and index. There are 111 names.
