notes: David was supposedly buried in Black Cemetery. The current location of where Black Cemetery was, is now in Jeannette. At the time of his burial, Jeannette had not been incorporated, so it was not Jeannette. (An unincorporated place can be listed before the township, but the township is the location that needs to be listed). Again, supposedly, all the graves, except one (Henry Allshouse's), were moved from the cemetery. This burial ground is much like the defunct Old German Cemetery in Greensburg, information is scarce, and there is speculation whether graves were moved at all. Old German Cemetery is now a parking lot, and Black Cemetery is in an alley. Very progressive. Research continues to hopefully get some concrete answers, someday.
