Welcome to the Duryea, Pennsylvania
Homepage of the St. John the Baptist Cemetery
Within these pages you find links to digital photos of some of the tombstones in the St. John the Baptist Cemetery on the corner of Evans Street and Phoenix Street. Many people think of it as the Sacred Heart Cemetery but the actual name is St. John the Baptist Cemetery. These photos were taken in 2010 and are only a portion of the tombstones there.
PLEASE NOTE: Although we have tried to make this partial listing accurate, it is very possible that we may have misread a tombstone or hit the wrong key or keys when typing up this information. If you see any mistakes regarding name spellings or dates, please let me know so I can correct them. In many cases, there are more names on a given tombstone than are shown in the link. However, we only listed one because of limitations in the link size. So be sure to view the tombstone photo itself if you have an interest in a certain name.
If you have more information about any of the people listed on these tombstones or any photos of the people listed on these tombstones, please contact me and we can arrange to have them added to the website. We are always interested in adding additional items to the website of anything relating to Duryea and the people who lived there prior to 1965. If you have old documents, newspaper articles, maps, photos or anything else you think might be of interest, please feel free to contact us. This will help others who may be researching their ancestors.
