Delaware County NY Genealogy and History Site

This cemetery is located on Townsend Hollow Road, just over the Delaware County Line in the town of Halcott, Greene county. The Townsend's are from Delaware County town of Middletown. Their birth, death, and marriage records after 1881 can be found in the Middletown Clerks office, however since some of the land is located in Greene County researchers may want to check with the town of Halcott clerk as well as Greene county for vital statistics. The majority of the land they owned is town of Middletown. This cemetery is on the left hand side of the road about 200 yards off townsend hollow road, you can see it from the road and walk up an old road to get to it. The stones are in poor repair, many broken and missing. There are several field stones with no names, so the following is a partial list. Some of the family memebers are buried in Clovesville and Pine Hill from the research I have done to date. --Vesti Snyder, Jan 2000
