Sarah's resting place

THIS IS NOT CORRECT. I visited Ivy Mills Cemetery personally in 2012, and neither John nor Sarah are buried here according to the headstones in the cemetery or any official records.

Sarah is buried in the Willcox Family Homestead Burying Ground, also known as Ivy Mills Cemetery. It's a private cemetery on 109 Ivy Mills Road in Concord Township, Delaware County, PA, according to the website below.

I haven't been there personally. I have not found pictures of the cemetery online.  I plan on going there someday.

From this record I am starting with the following information:

Name                          Date of Birth       Date of Death       Comments
WILLCOX, Sarah Walton Abt. 1758 28 Feb 1830 w/o John Willcox

WILLCOX, John                 1754/1756           01 Oct 1818         h/o Sarah Walton
    Son of James Willcox and Prudence Doyle

    Note to self: This isn't accurate. These graves are not located at Ivy Mills. I am grateful to a volunteer from findagrave who actually went to the homestead and took photos. Now I have to find where they are actually buried, however, and why this information is listed where it is.
