Churchyard
and Cemetery of "The First Presbyterian Church of Brookhaven", SETAUKET.
This is the oldest cemetery in Brookhaven Town and it is riot known how many
ancient graves without markers or tombstones it contains. During the Revolutionary
War, it was part of the enclosure of a British and Tory fortification when
the troops under Col. Hewlett, who occupied the church building in 1777, destroyed
a number of the stones when they cast a trench and embankment around the
church. However, a number of very old stones still remain and all but two
or three have been read (with great difficulty) in 1937 and 1938, and the
names and dates from them appear in this record. One or two stones are now
broken off, leaving no inscription. In the extreme southwest corner of the
Floyd enclosure, is the stone of what appears to be Mary, wife of Richard
Floyd, with faint traces of a date in the 1600's, the last two figures of
which cannot be read. It is, without doubt, the oldest existing stone in Brookhaven
Town. A few graves are marked with small native field stones, both with and
without inscriptions. A new part of the cemetery is north of the present
church, but none of the stones in it bear death dates prior to 1883, (the
earliest being 1937) hence none of them appear in this record. |

Churchyard
and Cemetery of Caroline Eqiscopal Church, SETAUKET. In June 1776, the Town
Trustees ordered this cemetery to be laid out,but there were doubtlessly
burials made in it many years prior to this date. It contains several old
unmarked graves. A few have native field stones at their heads, only one
of which bears an inscription. |

The
extreme northwestern part of Cem. 2, adjoining the land of Robert S. Gerard,

was an Indian. |

Middle
Island "Union Cemetery" or, the south side of and adjoining the Middle Country
(State) Road (Route 25) about opposite the "Middletown Presbyterian Church",
MIDDLE ISLAND. The old part of this Cem., about 1 acre, is the northeast
section, and was approximately one acre and opened about 1765, directly opposite
the church. In it are an unknown number of unmarked graves-quite a few having
rough field stones for markers. The newer part contains five acres and was
sold by Joshua Swezey.
The cemetery was incorporated
in 1869. |
|
3a
|
The
northwest section of Cem.3, separated from the main part by a piece of uncleared
land. It is a newer section, but contains some dates prior to 1883, possibly
by stones having been moved into it from older private graveyards. |

|
Churchyard
and Cemetery of the South Haven Presbyterian Church, SOUTH HAVEN. This Cem.
is part of the two acres reserved around the church when Yamphank Neck (South
Haven) was sold in 1745. It was probably a burial place at that time and tradition
states that it extended much farther to the westward and that through_ chicanery,
it was encrouched upon, little by little, so that the driveway into Mr. Charles
Robinson's duck ranch is over ancient graves, also that some of the ancient
stones were buried or destroyed. There are many unmarked graves in this Cem.,
some of which have small field stones at their heads. |

Former
churchyard of the Patchogue Union Church and later extended into the old Patchogue
Village Cemetery on the east side of Waverly Avenue, PATCHOGUE. it is west
of "Lake View Cemetery" (Cem.5a) and north of the so-called Rice Cemetery
(Cem.5b) and separated from these two cemeteries by a wire and iron fence.
At the time of making this copy, it was in such bad condition that, while
every effort was made to read every stone, one or two may have been overlooked.
It contains many unmarked and unknown graves. |
|

|
"Lake
View Cemetery", sometimes called the "Episcopal Cemetery" (title of which
is said to have been vested in St. Paul's Episcopal Church by Ruth Newsy Smith),
west of and adjoining property of the Patchogue-Plymouth lace mill, PATCHOGUE.
In this Cem. is the Ruth Newey Smith monument with hundreds of names and
dates of the descendants of John Smith of Coram, and from which many of the
dates in this record are taken, some allowance being made for known errors.
These names are indicated by M5a. |

|
The
so-called "Rice Cemetery" on the north side of Montauk Highway" (Route 27),
a short distance west of the PatchoguePlymouth lace mill, and adjoining

Cemetery
adjoining on the east, the churchyard of the "First Congregational Church
of Brookhaven", now named "Sea View Cemetery", on the north side of the
North Country Road (Route 25A, formerly) in the eastern part of Mount Sinai,
formerly Old Mans. The earliest grave in this Cem. is either that of Oliver
Hutchinson, who died 19 Dec. 1840, or Mrs. Ann Hill Platt, w. of Rev. Ebenezer
Platt, who died 1 Apr. 1842. It is therefore evident that any stones in this
Cem. with death dates prior to the above dates have been moved in from other
graveyards. |

|
"Mount
Pleasant Cemetery" on the north side of Montauk Highway, (Route 27), in the

Smith for the parsonage land. It was opened for burial in or about the year
1851, though it is stated that the first burial was that of David Lanphier
about 1856. It is therefore evident that any stones in this Cem. with death
dates prior to the above dates have been moved in from other grave yards. |

22
|
Yaphank
Village Cemetery, consisting of 4 acres on the north side of and a little
way back of Main Street, and owned by the Yaphank Cemetery Association.
It was organized in 1870. It is therefore evident that any stones in this
