In York, by the old Zion Lutheran Church, is the Zion Lutheran Church Cemetery.
The church, currently unoccupied, faces S. Duke Street - address: 39. On the north side of the church is a line of graves right at the wall, plus a few more in the lawn. The space isn't that wide. The graves are in various sizes and states of wear. Some are slate, and some are marble.
There are 60 graves according to findagrave.com. As shown both by this and another site, the cemetery is in two parts: one toward the rear of the church and one along the side of the church. The explanation given is that some of the graves were moved when the addition was added to the church. The records are kept by the new Zion Lutheran Church in West Manchester Township.
