Much of this information came from a pamplet prepared by Harry W. Huson and
Published by the Brookhaven Town Bicentennial Committee while other inofrmation
was donated by visitors.. It represents very briefly information of the birth,
death and burial locations of American patriots of the town of Brookhaven.
Where available short biographies of some who seemed outstanding were included.
It must also be noted that many worthy patriots have
been omitted for no other reason than that they were buried outside the boundries
of Brookhaven Town.
If you are in possession of information of a patriot not listed here
or one buried elsewhere please feel free to submit it to us and it will be
added to the current offering.
