we got off the manahawkin exit, so i wanna say manahawkin.
as you get off the exit, you just go straight...theres going to be a big lake on your left about 7-8 minutes down the road, right after the lake, closer to the road, your going to see a playground. right after the playground is a road on your left, once you turn down it there is the cemetery on your right. we parked in the parking lot of a bank i wanna say, walked across the street, hopped a small cement wall and we were in. once you get in there is a small church in the front blocking the road.

I know where it is I work at the Chevy dealership basically across the street. I didn't know there were graves in there though, guess I'll have to check it out. Or let me know when you go again.
well i got my pictures back, and there were some orbs, but i think alot of them had to do with the rain drops and the light of the camera, but some are clearly orbs. we might be going again this thursday depending on the weather. this thursday will just be me and my friend, just like yesturday. friday or saturday night is going to be the night were we hit alot of the spots that i have asked about. alot of cemeteries and a few spots in bamber where some wierd stuff has happend to me. if you wanna go thursday let me know, maybe we can hit a few other cemeteries besides the one mentioned above.

everyone h as seem to been avoiding my one and only question...where is this atsion cemetery. i checked out the airial map of it on google....but couldnt locate it obviously
The Atsion Catholic Cemetery is located inside the gates of the swimming area. It is located in the picnic area just before the parking area. In order to get to it the gates must be open, or you risk being thrown in jail. So if you drive by and the gates are open, walk or drive in if you want. If they are closed, I would stay out.

Do you know if you have to pay year round? Annie told me about that cemetery a while back but that you have to pay to get to that part of Atsion. I'd imagine they don't charge this time of year, at least I hope not.

In the winter it is gated, but a few years back they were opening it on a trial basis because of the bathrooms it provided. That was nice because you could drive right in and out. But the following year it was closed and I believe it still is, but I may be wrong.

We have discussed this before and since it has been a while, I will mention it again. In the mid 70's when they were building the buildings at the swimming area, the residents in the area were not happy. It was very unpopular!
Anyway, one of the residents who owned a home along Atsion road submitted a complaint to the Courier Post about the construction, saying that the "Scottish" Cemetery had been destroyed and she was concerned with what they did with the bodies buried in it. Now I have never been able to determine if what she called the "Scottish" cemetery was actually the "Catholic" cemetery as it is called today, and it was never destroyed. However, if it was not the Catholic cemetery, a cemetery was destroyed in the building of that project.

Here is a photo my friend took of the building there as it was being constructed. Notice the lake is drained and you can just see the channel. My records show the photo was developed in 4/79.
