You know the date of death and where she died , apply for the certificate it should have the parents names if known.

Pennsylvania didn't require vital registration until 1906, so there may be no death record. Where did you find the information about her date of death?

Thank you amondg and shelleyesq. I found Sarah Brown's death on findagrave and on online trees. I gather that she married Robert H. Brown in 1871 in Toronto, Ontario but haven't found the actual record. Hoping it would name parents. Haven't found a death certificate. I have been searching findagrave but no parents there. Haven't found a way to contact Sebring Cemetery. I did find the marriage of an Ettie Brown, born Hartsfield, PA, parents Robert and Sarah, who married Laurence B. LaHaye in 1905 in Owen Sound, Ontario, son of Peter LaHaye and Mary Jane Lennox who I believe is Sarah's sister. So Sarah's parents should be Andrew Lennox and Sarah Ewing but trying to prove that.
Robert remarried in 1890 to Richie Huber.

From a google search the cemetery is located on private property now

You could write the address shown was Alexandra Lane, Liberty Pa 16930

I think you may have to invest in a subscription to Scotland's People.

If Sarah was born in Scotland they will have the information you need.

Re the marriage


A Marriage.

Source listed as

Name:   Sarah Lennox
Marriage Registration Date:   1871
Marriage Registration Place:   Toronto City, Ontario, Canada
Page number:   page 341
Event Description:   Marriage Registrations; Office of the Registrar General (RG 80-5); Archives of Ontario, Toronto: microfilm group MS932, reel 6, unit 80-5-0-20, volume 19

But it could very well be this one to Edw. Hen BODDY

Looking at the census Andrew Lennox says he was born in Ireland and when daughter Mary married a 2nd time says she is Catholic.
Could Sarah have been born in Ireland circa 1855 and they moved to Scotland before 1858 before going to Canada 1871.
