Article from news clipping by Russ Maurer, dated 12/22/1995 centered upon this cemetery and the myth of Lincoln kin buried here. The cemetery is located just off Lincoln Lane near the Little Mahanoy Creek at Taylorsville. The cemetery is on posted private land and permission should be sought by owners before accessing with respect. It is somewhat maintained to preserve but many burials according to known records either have no markers or are made of native stone and may be hard to locate. Some have been vandalized, removed or even thought washed away by flooding over time for which this location is known.

1/17/2020: Information on Francis Yarnell and family can be found posted on genealogy.com forum by Tina McNulty, 1/1/2002 "There were Kinsmen of Abraham Lincoln in Schuylkill County" a Paper Written and Prepared for The Historical Society of Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania by Edgar Downey. In the early 1770's when he was commissioned to survey land Yarnell purchased a large amount of fine farmland in the vicinity of Taylorsville, Barry Twp. and proceeded to clear enough for several farms. Northumberland County was organized in 1772 and it's southern line not yet established, therefore he was assessed as a resident of Augusta Twp. in that county for several years. Later once the lines of Northumberland Co. were accurately established he became a resident of Berks Co. By 1811 the land where his farms were located became Schuylkill Co., now part of Barry Twp. The Great Road of The King's Highway ran through his farms. It is stated that both he and his wife Mary spent the remainder of their years here and are buried here in the old burial ground, now known as Reed's Cemetery, just off The Great Road which he surveyed on the south bank of the Mahanoy Creek. They were married abt. 1741.
!Reed's is also referred to as Bickels Cemetery although signage shows Reed's for another prominent area family. The covered bridge over the creek is long gone more than likely washed away, the graves are unmarked although other Yarnall/Yarnell markers exist here.
!Edit of Taylorville should read Taylorsville, Barry Twp., Schuylkill Co., Pennsylvania and correct by today's standards.
Oral histories state both are buried here and being Quaker/Mennonite/Friends did not believe in adorning their graves with monuments.

Some Land Records provide evidence.
There has been much discussion as to the parents of Alice and Rachel Yarnall. I believe the Yarnall Geneology Book (A Partial Genealogy of the Name Yarnall-Yarnell, pub. 1970) is incorrect in listing them as children of Francis and Mary Morris, not only were Francis and Mary too old to be the parents, but both lived and died in Chester county and were members of the Quaker Meeting and they kept excellent records. I am sure they were the children of Francis Yarnall (born 1719)(third generation) and Mary Lincoln. Francis lived all his life on the frontier in Berks and Northumberland Counties and on at least two occassions was forced out of the area by Indian troubles. The genealogy book is correct in listing 7 children, however, I think there were at least 2 more children; Rachel, married to Isaac Penrose and Alice, married to Joseph McIntyre. (There may also have been a son Francis and another daughter Ellen). Listed below are the reasons I believe this.

1. The genealogy book is wrong as to Francis' (second generation) second wife being Mary Lincoln; prior to her marriage to David Morris her name was Mary Phillips daughter of Phillip Phillips.

2. The will of Francis Yarnall (second generation) only names one child from the second marriage, Mary (married to Joseph Thomas), even though his step children are named.

3. Alice McIntyre is listed in the settling of the estate of Jesse Yarnall, (son of Francis and Mary Lincoln Yarnall), who I believe was her brother.

4. Joseph McIntyre is listed in the Day book (survey book) of Mordacai Yarnall (1772) as having borrowed 35 pounds from him.

5. Isaac, Jesse, Peter Yarnall and William McIntyre (a son of Alice) all owned land joining each other in Center County, Pennsylvania.

6. Alice and Rachel (and Francis and Ellen) are listed as children of Francis and Mary Lincoln Yarnall in the Heber Gearhart papers.

7. Francis Yarnall's parents were Peter and Alice. Mary Lincoln's parents were Mordacai and Hannah. We know Francis & Mary had children named, Peter, Hannah and Mordacai. Quaker customs were to name children after the parents and grandparents.

8. Francis Yarnall lived at Yarnall's (now Taylorsville). Also living there were sons Peter, Isaac and Jesse. The boundary line for Northumberland County, when it was surveyed in 1772, was the Yarnall Path. This path went from Yarnalls to the Catawissa area. Living in the Catawissa area was Francis' son Mordacai and daughter Hannah (married to Ellis Hughes). Also living in the area were Alice and Joseph McIntyre and Rachal and Isaac Penrose.

9. Alice Yarnall was mentioned as to her helping the survivors of the Wyoming Massacre in 1778 as the Connecticut settlers came down the river from Wilkes Barre. I believe that Francis Yarnall and Ellis Hughes and Mordacai Yarnall were in the Catawissa area around this time surveying and finding good land for speculators and settlers.

Documents to prove the above are as follows:
Marriage certificate of Mary Phillips and David Morris.
Francis Yarnall Jr's. will.
Estate papers from Jesse Yarnall.
Day Book of Mordacai Yarnall.
Map of land of Wm. McIntrye and the Yarnall's in Center Co.
Heber Gearhart Papers from the Pa. Historical Society.
self explanatory.

Records of the Lincoln Family
Hi Elaine,
I agree! And to support your beliefs [and mine], I quote from "Jason & Martha Harmer Penrose, Their Ancestors, Descendants & Related families 1200-1982" by Evelyn Thompson Penrose ..... pg 70:
Isaac Penrose, son of Richard and Margaret Wright Penrose, was born 27 July 1757 in Maiden Creek township, Berks county, Pa; he died 15 May 1826 (or 3 Aug 1826) in Whitchurch township, York county, Home District, Upper Canada. Isaac's marriage about 1790 to Rachel Yarnall, born 28 Dec 17__, died 30 Aug 1836, was contrary to Friends' discipline and he was disowned at Exeter Monthly Meeting in Pennsylvania. Isaac and Rachel moved to Catawissa township (now Roaring Creek), Northumberland County, Pa; both Isaac and his father were listed in that area in the 1790 census. Isaac was re-admitted to Exeter Monthly Meeting in 1796 and transferred his membership to Catawissa Monthly Meeting by certificate dated 31 May 1797 and presented 26 Aug 1797. His wife Rachel was received into membership at Catawissa Monthly Meeting 24 Mar 1797. Isaac took the oath of Alligiance in Canada 31 Dec 1805; and he and Rachel were received as members of the Yonge St Monthly Meeting 16 June 1808.

From the "History of the Lincoln Family" by Waldo Lincoln .... pg 50-51:
Mary [Lincoln], date of birth unknown; died after 1769; married in 1742, Francis3, son of Peter2 (Francis1) and Alice (Worrilow) Yarnall of Goshen, Pa., born Sept. 27, 1719; died after 1769 in which year he, being described as "yeoman of Reading, Pa.," with his wife Mary joined her brothers and sisters in a quit-claim deed to her half-brother Abraham. Francis Yarnall was a Quaker but his wife was not and complaint of his marriage "out of meeting" was made at Exeter Meeting 8 mo. 7th, 1742, and testimony was formally made against him 10mo. 30th of same year as follows: "Whereas Francis Yarnell, son to Peter Yarnall of Exeter, having but a short time past Requested of Friends to let him come under their care, which was granted him, but for want of being so Careful to mind the gift of God in himself as he ought to have done, he went to vain Pastimes, and took a wife of another Persuasion and took an oath before Magistrates; yet, notwithstanding what hath been acted by him, Friends care over him at several times hath been to bring him to a sense of his condition, but all seeming to work no contrition in him, therefore, for the Clearing of the Truth, and the Professors thereof, it is the sense and Judgment of this Meeting to give this as a Testimony against him for his disorderly proceedings, until he gives proof of his unfeigned Repentance; which in love of God we heartily desire for his soul's sake. "Signed on Behalf and by the Order of our Monthly Meeting held at Exeter the 30th of the 10th month 1742. (From records of Gilbert Cope, Westchester, Pa.)

They were certainly married before May 10, 1743, when Francis Yarnall "cordwainer" and Mary his wife of Amity joined William Tallman and Anne his wife, also of Amity, in a sale of 100 acres of land conveyed to Hannah and Mary Lincoln by their father. He probably united the trade of "cordwainer" with farming or perhaps abandoned the trade in the latter part of his life. The only occurrence of the name of Yarnall in the Berks County Probate Court is the granting of administration, March 10, 1781, on the estate of Mordecai Yarnall, late of Exeter township, Yeoman, deceased intestate, to Leah Yarnall, relict; surities: Francis Yarnall and Jesse Yarnall. It is quite probable these are the children of Francis and Mary (Lincoln) Yarnall. The recent discovery of a Lincoln family record at Lebanon, Ohio, which is printed in full under John Lincoln, adaa, has furnished positive evidence of two of the Yarnall children, the oldest and, probably, the youngest; and it seems safe to assume that Francis and Jesse, the sureties just named, were their brothers. (The Ancestry of Abraham Lincoln, pp. 72, 195.)

CAUTION: SEVERAL DIFFERENT COUSINS OF THE SAME NAME WERE MIXED AND MERGED. Please keep separated.
Mordecai was the earliest direct Lincoln ancestor of the President to settle in Pennsylvania. With him came his brother, Abraham, the first of the Lincoln clan to bear that name. They were the sons of Mordecai Lincoln of Scituate, Massachusetts, and the grandsons of Samuel Lincoln of Hingham, the first Lincoln progenitor of the President to settle in America.

Both Mordecai and his brother Abraham lived in New Jersey about seven years before migrating to Pennsylvania. While residing in New Jersey, Mordecai married Hannah Saltar, to which union there were born one son, John, and five daughters. One of the daughters died in infancy and lies buried in Monmouth County, New Jersey.

Mordecai and Hannah Lincoln and their family settled at "Scoolkill," later called Coventry Township, in Chester County. Here Mordecai, in partnership with Samuel Nutt and William Branson, operated a forge on French Creek - just how long Mordecai remained here it is difficult to determine. There is some indication that he intended to return to New Jersey as he sold his interest in the forge for five hundred pounds on December 14 1726, and five months later he bought of Richard Saltar, a tract of land in Monmouth County, New Jersey. Apparently it was about the time of the New Jersey land purchase in 1727, that his wife, Hannah, passed away and left him with five children, the oldest but eleven, and the youngest, an infant born shortly before the mother's death.

(www.berkshistory.org)

"Mordecai Lincoln married Hannah, daughter of Richard and Sarah Bowne Salter previous to 1711, as in that year Hannah Lincoln is mentoned in a will of Captain John Bowne, 2nd (her uncle). The settlement of this estate involved a tedious lawsuit which is noted in Book No. 1, Minutes of Court, Freehold. Mordecai Lincoln's will was admitted to probate at Philadelphia, June 7, 1736. The plantation of Mordecai contained 1,000 acres situated in Exeter, now Berks County, Pennsylvania."

(William Bowne of Yorkshire, England & His Descendants by Miller K Reading, M.D.)

Mordecai blev gift med Hannah Salter den 14 sep. 1714 i Freehold, Monmouth, New Jersey, USA. Hannah (datter af Captain Richard Salter, Sr og Sarah Bowne) blev født den 1 jun. 1692 i Freehold, Monmouth, New Jersey, USA; døde den 30 apr. 1727 i Amity, Berks, Pennsylvania, USA; blev begravet i 1727 i Exeter, Berks, Pennsylvania, USA.

This is quoted from Ancestry.com information:
"The New Jersey family, which solely interests us, became very early distinguished in the history of the State, and for a long time remained prominent. The tradition current in the family states that shortly after the accession of Charles II to the English throne (probably in 1664) several brothers from political and religious reasons came to this country. They landed at or near Boston, Massachusetts, where one remained, while the other two removed thence to the State of New Jersey. Of these, one settled in Salem County and died without issue, leaving a considerable estate to his widow, Hannah Salter, who upon her decease left this property, situated in and around Philadelphia and New Jersey, to be equally divided among her own and her husband's relatives. The other brother, Richard Salter, the youngest of the three, settled in Middletown, Monmouth County, New Jersey, and became the founder of the branch we are about to follow. The dates of Richard Salter's birth and decease are unknown. He married Sarah, daughter of Captain John and Lydia (Holmes) Browne. She was born at Gravesend, Long Island. Their children were: John, Ebenezer, Richard, Thomas, Hannah."

Sarah is mentioned in the Will of her brother John:
John Bowne's Will dated 9/24/1714, proved 2/15/1715-16 left to wife 400 lbs, to sister, SARAH SALTER, all plate, etc. to Gershom Mott for his children 200 lbs, to Joseph Dennis, Jeremiah white, Thomas and John Salter, Hannah LINCOLN and William Hartshorn's 3 children each 250 lbs. Brothers Obadiah Bowne and Richard Salter (actually brother-in-law), Executors and Residuary Legatees. Monmouth Will Books Book A, pp 10-27.

Sarah Bowne, the daughter of John and Lydiah Holmes Bowne, married Richard Salter, a lawyer, judge, and colonial legislator. Hannah, the daughter of Richard and Sarah Bowne Salter, was born about 1692 (possibly in Freehold, Monmouth Co., NJ). Sometime before Sept. 14, 1714 (in Monmouth Co., NJ?), Hannah Salter married Mordecai Lincoln (an iron founder) and moved to Chester Co., PA. Hannah Salter Lincoln was the mother of "Virginia" John Lincoln. "Virginia" John Lincoln was the father of the Abraham Lincoln who settled in Kentucky and was killed by Indians there in the 1780s. This Abraham Lincoln was the grandfather of Abraham Lincoln, the President of the United States. Therefore, the Rev. Obadiah and Katherine Hyde Holmes were the fifth great grandparents of Abraham Lincoln. In addition, Hannah Bowne Salter's son, Edwin Salter, lived in New Jersey. Edwin Salter wrote the Early Dutch Settlers and wrote an article on Rev.
Obadiah Holmes which was printed in the Monmouth Democrat newspaper of September 6, 1888. The American ancestry of Abraham Lincoln, including his line to Obadiah and Katherine (Hyde) Holmes is documented in Ancestors of American Presidents, Gary Boyd Roberts, published in cooperation with the New England Historic Genealogical Society, Boston, Mass., 1995, pp. 33-36, 149-150. This book provides the lineage of each president, including their royal and Mayflower lines and other notable connections and is still in print.
