ANOTHER READING

Benjamin Honeyman purchased the SE ¼ of section 23 in Union Township from Hiram and Jane Curtis on 12 December 1832.  This farm is currently owned by Levi Nelson Booher Jr., a direct descendant of Benjamin Honeyman, and is located on the northwest corner of Kessler-Frederick Road at Shearer Road .  The cemetery is accessible from Shearer Road .  It should be noted that the Hunnaman markers were apparently the work of a German stonecutter who engraved the name as he heard it.  This Honeyman family originated in Scotland where they were beekeepers, migrated to England and later to Philadelphia , PA in the early 1700’s.  Also, the Goens name is incorrectly engraved and should read Goings.
