The Old Dutch Burying Ground in North Tarrytown New York
This book documents the early gravestones and inscriptions of the Old Dutch Burying Ground in North Tarrytown, New York, focusing on preservation efforts led by William Graves Perry. Commissioned for the church’s 250th anniversary, it records the deteriorating brownstone and marble markers, some dating back to the 18th century. The text highlights the artistry of gravestones and the community’s historical significance. Despite losses, surviving inscriptions are important for understanding the genealogy of early settlers in the area.
