Tilden Family Cemetery, Greenlawn

Mrs. Nellie R. Scudder called this small cemetery "Tilden Plot on their farm, Greenlawn" when she copied this inventory on 21 October 1914. The cemetery is located east of Tilden Lane, off Old Hills Court, in the Greenlawn section of the Town of Huntington. The cemetery is now a Town of Huntington Local Historic Site. Information on this cemetery can be found in the "Scudder Collection of Long Island Genealogical Records," available at the Huntington Historical Society or on L. D. S. microfilm. Please note that Sarah {OAKES} Tilden, who died 15 July 1865, appears both on this list and the list for the "Tilden Plot," possibly in Elwood, found on page 1443 of the "Scudder Collection." She is the only person to appear on both cemetery lists. Data copied and submitted by David Roberts.
