Directions to Cemetery / Gravesite:

Driving Directions: In West Kittanning, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, at the intersection of Business U.S. Route 422 and Pennsylvania State Route 268, take Route 268 (Sometimes Called East Brady Road) north and west and drive for a total of 5.55 miles into the village of Cowansville. Almost to Cowansville, at the "Y" in the road where Route 268 and Adrian-Reesedale Road meet, bear left and continue, over the railroad grade, toward Cowansville. Shortly after this "Y" you will arrive at the intersection of Ridge Road and Route 268, in Cowansville. At this point, there will be a Grave monument business and you should have seen the cemetery, already...but if not, then look to your right and the Church and Cemetery are there.

Send a biographical sketch of your patriot!

Patriot biographies must be the original work of the author, and work submitted must not belong to another person or group, in observance with copyright law. Patriot biographies are to be written in complete sentences, follow the established rules of grammar, syntax and punctuation, be free of typographical errors, and follow a narrative format. The narrative should unfold in a logical manner (e.g. the narrative does not jump from time period to time period) or have repeated digressions, or tell the history of the patriot's line from the patriot ancestor to the author. The thinking here is that this is a patriot biography, not a lineage report or a kinship determination project or other report published in a genealogy journal. The biography should discuss the qualifying service (military, patriotic, civil) of the patriot ancestor, where the service was rendered, whether this was a specific state or Continental service, as well as significant events (as determined by the author) of the patriot's life. This is the entire purpose of a patriot's biography.
