Oakwood Cemetery
Check out the photos of Oakwood Cemetery in Our Slideshow Gallery. A quaint little resting spot between Franklin & Cochranton, PA. It isn't visible from the highway so keep your eyes open for Green Acres Golf Club sign, that is the correct road just past the church. It looks a little creepy at first but is a very quiet graveyard. There are old and new burials here and it is very tiny, so if you have a few minutes to get off the beaten path this is the spot for you.

Greendale Chapel
While at Greendale we checked out the tiny Chapel, probably used for services in years past. Check out the detail on this door knob, we only notice after we uploaded the photos.
St. Agatha
At some point on our excursion through the cemetery, without our noticing the grounds became the St. Agatha Cemetery.
Rhododendrons of Greendale
1903 grave in thick of rhododendrons - we saw many of those with the bushes totally encompassing the tombstone.
Greendale's Huidekoper
The first vision after passing through the Greendale gates is an open Huidekoper masoleum is a spectacular site

Cry Baby Cemetery
This is a very old tiny Cemetery with more stories and rumors than thought possible. GPS Coordinates:
latitude 41°12'24.42"Nlongitude 79°34'37.25"W
Its on Triangle road from one way but if your coming from the other way its Garris road, its very small 20 or so headstones, so keep watch. We never experienced any of the sights or sounds others have reported but was very interesting to actually visit. In Salem Township- also known as Triangle Cemetery and Pickwick Cemetery
Monroe Cemetery - Friendly Folks
Phipps Cemetery
Pioneer Cemetery Franklin, PA
This place was so rich with history and with a great sense of insight into the early settlers life. It seriously is a must see.
