"The Methodist Episcopal society at Schaghticoke Hill was organized as a class about the year 1789-90 and continued to be a regular preaching appointment of the Pittstown circuit until 1850, when, with Schaghticoke Point, it was set off. In 1863 Grant's Hollow, then known as the Junction, was joined to Schaghticoke. In 1864 Schaghticoke was set off by itself and since that time Schaghticoke Hill and Grant's Hollow (Melrose) have been under one pastor."

"Other burials in this neighborhood are scattered over many farms and sometimes but few in a place. As in other towns, so in this, while much attention is given to the new cemeteries, very little care is given to the old, except in a few instances. […] burial-places may be summarily mentioned as follows: […] one at Schaghticoke Hill, connected with the Methodist Church, now unused"
