Old photo of Howerter's Church & Cemetery.
Here is information from NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY BIOGRAPHIES: Rev. Rudolph Duenger PART II, "The third Northumberland congregation of the pastorate emerged a few years later in 1803. It assumed the name St. Jacobs, but became more commonly known as Howerter's Church after the family of pioneer settler Valentin Hohwarter. The first church was built in 1807 near Pitman, just on the Northumberland side of the county line. Once again, a log house first served for worship purposes and was eventually replaced by a stone building similar in style and design to that of Himmel's. In 1853, a year before Duenger resigned from Lower Mahanoy, a sister
congregation named St. John's Lutheran and Reformed Church was established a few miles up the valley at Leck Kill in Upper Mahanoy Township. Howerter's Church and St. John's remained connected long after the Lower Mahanoy Charge dissolved, it's Lutheran congregations eventually becoming known as the Line
Mountain Charge."

This is a very old cemetery, set amongst farmers fields. The stones from 1800's on are readable, but those from the 1700's are in German and are very worn.
