  Issue, jt: 20200111HAv- Posted 25 Feb 2017 by LEIDY TOWNSHIP. Excerp from Hammersley Cemetery History History: Jacob Hammersley (1783-1873) settled along Kettle Creek in 1824, at the mouth of a stream which came to be known as Hammersley's Fork. A farmer and miller, he was also known as a great pioneer hunter. He and his wife Jane, who survived him to a great age, raised a family of nine children, including -Jacob, -Henry (killed at Gettysburg), -Uriah, and -Richard (died 1873). Uriah Hammersley carried on a hotel at the mouth of the Fork until he was murdered by his son-in-law, John Kehoe, over a financial dispute in 1884. The family, their friends and neighbors, used a small burying-ground on the hill on their property, which came to be known as Hammersley Cemetery. It was never separated out by deed. The first known burial was that of Albert Hammersley, in 1850, and the final interment was that of Urias Kelly in 1935.
