About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Defunct cemetery located on the north bank of the Wyomissing Creek, approx. 1/3 mi. from road connecting Sinking Spring to Shillington. Less than a field's breadth from road connecting the Five-Mile House and Reading, now named Museum Road, along the Wyomissing Creek.
There were 100-150 stones in 4-5 parallel rows marked by small stones at each end. The cemetery would be equally distant from the two Babtist churches, Sinking Spring and Wyomissing near Reading.
Some of the stones were removed to the basement of the Babtist church, Fifth and Chestnut Sts., Reading. Others were used as pavers at nearby local homes.
