I found this item in a "History of Northumberland Co" article; possible the burial place for Peter and Adam?

St. Peter's Church, Lutheran and Reformed Church, was organized more than a hundred years ago. John Pensyl donated an acre of ground for church and burial purposes; a log building was erected thereon as a place of worship and a brick building for school purposes. The latter was replaced by the present church edifice, of which the corner-stone was laid on the 5th of September, 1863. It is a brick structure forty feet wide and eighty feet long. John Pensyl and Peter Demmig (Dimmick) were among the most active of the early members. The present (1890) official boards are constituted as follows: Lutheran - Adam Dimmick and Henry Hoffman, elders, George Buffington and Egbert Adams, deacons; Reformed - Franklin Erdman and David Kaseman, elders, G. F. Herb and F. P. Martz, deacons. The cemetery adjoining the church is tastefully arranged and inclosed with a neat iron fence.
