Stony Brook Friends Cemetery List


The following is from 7 handwritten pages that the Stony Brook Friends let me photocopy of the burials in their graveyard in Princeton, NJ. I have no idea when it was written, or by whom. The graveyard is small, so my guess is that this is a fairly complete list.

I have transcribed the data exactly as written. If I am unsure of a precise spelling (it looks like an "o" to me, but might possibly be an "e" for example), I have followed the word with (sic). If I can not make out the word at all, I have replaced it with (illegible). All abbreviations for "month" were written slightly above the number preceding it, with a line underneath (just as you would find the "st" of 1st if handwritten.) Some names and words were treated similarly. In those instances, I have denoted it by underlining the letter at the end of the name or word. Lastly, sometimes you will find that I have left a blank space in between words. That is how it is in the handwritten pages.

The asterisk means: "Those marked thus not members". (Assuming they were not members of the Society Of Friends, at least not at Stony Brook.)
