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. |
2a
|
The
extreme northwestern part of Cem. 2, adjoining the land
of Robert S. Gerard, on the east side of a private road.
It is enclosed by a fence and is not visible from Cem.2.
Tradition states that one of the persons buried there
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. |
5a
|
"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. |
5b
|
The
so-called "Rice Cemetery" on the north side of Montauk
Highway" (Route 27), a short distance west of the

to the Episcopal Diocese of Long Island, PATCHOGUE. |

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. |
7
|
"Mount
Pleasant Cemetery" on the north side of Montauk Highway,
(Route 27), in the eastern part of Centre Moriches, back
of the old Presbyterian parsonage. This cemetery was
first called "The Presbyterian Cemetery of Moriches",
and originally contained about lz acres, being a part of
some 7 acres, given by Capt.. Josiah 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. |

of Montauk Highway (Route 27) commonly called Robinson
Boulevard, and in the rear of the home of Robert Lyons,
Sr., BROOKHAVEN VILLAGE. Note: To avoid any
misunderstanding because of the Town and Village having
the same name, the old name, "Fireplace" will always be
used in this record to designate the village. |
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
Cemetery with death dates prior
to this date have been moved
in from other graveyards. Those given as M22 appear on
the Baker-Mills-Swezey monument and are not all buried
in this cemetery. |

probably the burial place, in unmarked graves, of the
early members of the Coram Smith family - the
descendants of "John Smith of Coram", son of Arthur
Smith, the Quaker, an early settler of Setauket in 1659.
A small part of this graveyard has an enclosure in which

Cemetery in the north part of Bellport, on the west side
of the Station Road, BELLPORT. The first burial in this
Cemeteryd was that of Irene, wife of John Robinson, who
died 19 July 1869. it is therefore evident that any
