Looking for cemetery where Ezra Hoopes is buried. He was born in 1752 and died in 1811. Wife was Ann Hickman Hoopes: born 1753 and died in 1833.
Thank you.

Do you know the exact name of this cemetery? {friends burial ground east goshen} I am having trouble finding it. I'd like to write to the cemetery to see if there is a headstone.
Thanks.

Hello
The message I sent you was the obit of Ezra Sr. wife, so if she is there, I am sure he is there also. Not all buriels there are recorded online. If you go to Swarthmore College Library, they have all the monthly meeting records available. The name of the cemetery is Goshen Monthly Meeting. I know my own ancestors are also buried there in the 1770s and they do not have that.
Best wishes, Don Leamy
