| Sheridan School & Cemetery |
 |
| View from Morgans Road |
In Huntingdon County, on the eastern side of Raystown Lake,
there is a small cemetery that is overgrown with weeds and disheveled.
Alongside the cemetery is a brick building that is also in need of some
repairs. With a lot of research I could not find out much about this building
or cemetery. The graveyard is known as Sheridan Cemetery but the building is
called a school. I found it odd that a school would be next to a cemetery and
believe it must have been a church at sometime and made into a school or vise
versa.
The
cemetery has about twenty head stones dating from the mid 1800’s to the early
1900’s. Most of the stones are overgrown with plants and flowers that had been
left there long ago. The cemetery and building sit alongside Morgans Road north
of the intersection of Chilcote’s and Morgan’s Road. Please be respectful of
the site if you wish to visit.
