These are photos taken at the cemetery on Pine Hill Road, Town of Masonville. The interesting thing about this cemetery is that the white headstone (the one facing the road) reads: Amy Wadsworth Died July 30, 1878 3 yrs, 9M, 20 days. Then, on the other side (facing the woods), there is another headstone that is back to back with the white headstone reads: Amy Wadsworth Died May 20, 1787 2 yrs, 5 Mos, 20 days. The second headstone appears to be made of slate and I think it was recently made, although I am not an expert. --Kathy Klopchin, October 13, 2007

Another view of Pine Hill cemetery showing stone wall to the right. The stone wall encompasses an area much larger than the 2 graves, so I wonder if more people are buried there?
