Jane,
Thank you very much for checking that for me.I can't take credit for
being ahead,My great Uncle spent 30 years reasearching our Grossman's and his
cousin also spent a good share of her life doing it.I am just the present
generations "GUARDIAN". Yes you're right the headstones were moved in the
50's according to my past generations.They originally were on the famiy farm.
I'm sorry to have put you to all of that work.It hadn't even dawned on me
that it was the original graves from the farm. I really appreciate your
taking the time though.

Pati, maybe you're one step ahead of the rest of us. The Grossman Family
Graveyard in Warwick Township is located west of Pa. Rte 501.(an approximate
sight as it is no longer). The good news is that five gravestones were
moved
to the Salem Lutheran Cemetery, Kissel Hill, in the 1960/70s. The Salem
Lutheran Cem. adjoins the church of the same name (also called the New Haven
Lutheran Church).
--located south of Owl Hill Rd., Kissel Hill (formerly called New Haven).
Gravestone inscriptions: NATIONAL GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY QUARTERLY, 34 (1946);
42; Wormer 11 (1942) 18; (no stones after 1900); no children (listed) under
age 18;
LMHS (1966); LCHS (Myers, 1975). Your interpretation is as good as mine
since I have taken this information from my book, "Churches and Cemeteries
of
Lancaster Co. Pa." Jane G.
