Profiles

This project is for those buried in Orchard Hills Cemetery, located on 211 Baldwin Boulevard, Shamokin Dam, Snyder County, Pennsylvania.

Prior to 1995, this cemetery was called West Side Cemetery. It is and always has been located in Snyder County, Pennsylvania, just across the river from the city of Sunbury in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, the river being the county line. There has been some confusion over the years with this cemetery and a non-existent cemetery called Westside in Sunbury because death certificates and obituaries for people who died in Sunbury, simply stated the burial was in Westside/West Side Cemetery with no city or county. Hence, people have incorrectly assumed the burial was in Sunbury, when in fact, they were buried in West Side Cemetery, now Orchard Hills, across the river in Snyder County.
