Green-Wood Cemetery
Section 82, Lot 2037.
[NOTE: There are over 50 burials here of individuals with multiple surnames, some of which exhibit multiple spellings, but only 8 stones are visible, one of which is fallen, eroded, and illegible. Most individuals buried here are therefore not memorialized by any currently visible or legible stone or inscription. A list of lot residents, with burial dates, appears after the inscriptions. This list is directly from the cemetery staff and reflects the spellings recorded in original documents. As the transcribed stone texts below illustrate, some of those spelling variations are on the stones themselves. These could be errors or family preferences.]
