  There are two cemeteries called Samaria. One is known as the OLD Samaria Cemetery, and is also known as the Burge, Moss or Dougherty Cemetery. It is located in Stockton Twp, Section 7; about 1/4 miles south of the other Samaria Cemetery. There seem to be only a few families buried there.
 *
 The other Samaria Cemetery, is also in Stockton Twp, on County Road 275N near 1550W. It is on the sides and behind the Samaria Pentecostal Church. It is a much larger cemetery than the Old Samaria Cemetery. I visited this cemetery once to take pictures for someone out of state, and it's a lovely little cemetery, very peaceful and well-kept.
  If you have particular names for which you are looking, email me privately, and I'll do a lookup for you. I have the cemetery listings for these cemeteries.

  Hi Valerie,
  You did a posting on Ancestry.com about Nathaniel Moss and Rebecca Harrah.
 If you would like to swap information I can provide her ancestry back a few
 generations. I can provide a gedcom or text document of her ancestry with
 all of my notes and data.
  How are you related to these lines?
  I have 4-5 generations of Harrahs in my ancestry starting around the time of
 the Civil war.
  bye for now,
  Bob Zingo
