Shintown Methodist Cemetery
Shintown, Clinton County, Pennsylvania, USA
History of Shintown Methodist Cemetery
Jacob Kepler, Sr., the leading citizen of Shintown, donated land for a Presbyterian Church in June, 1866. A church was built and cemetery laid out on the adjoining lands. Eventually, the Presbyterian Church folded and the property was sold to the Methodist Episcopal Church on 14 August 1882. The congregation was active for many years, but finally closed in the late 20th century. The vacant church stands along with the cemetery, which has not been used since the 1920s.
