Per various sources, this graveyard is known as:
- Alpine Road Cemetery
- Bender Burial Ground
- Benders Burial Ground
- Maytown-Bender Cemetery
- Alpine (Benders) Cemetery
I went there as a photographer, rather than a historian or genealogist. Others have done a good job of compiling information about this site, which dates to the late 18th century. If that's what you're interested in, you should check out:
- Bender Burial Ground on Waymarking.com
- York County PA USGenWeb Archives
- Find A Grave
- "A Cemetery Visit at Early Evening," written in 2009 by SavageMouse
Also, there's a Bender Burial Ground gallery on Flickr featuring photos that are much better than mine.
Here are my photos.
