Gordon Lockwood took these photos on his visit to Paxton Church Cemetery, Oct 13, 2003:
  "These pics are Markers of the Rev John  and his  sons in the Paxton Church Cemetery in Harrisburg Pa.   
 The Frontier Defenders plaque was on  the other side of the gate of the Revolutionary War plaque.     
Robert Elder  is next to the wall, then Joshua is next to him. 
 Rev John is in the plot with  two flags.     
 There are many many more relatives and fellow Revolution
War Soldiers of Rev John all over the Cemetery.  And The Church is quaint as
you can see in the pic with my car.  The cemetery is in front of my car. "
