Listings on this page are not necessarily complete and may not represent all of the stones in this cemetery. Please send additional submissions and corrections to Doug Boyer
This list is in the possession of the town historian of Richmondville. There are no attributes for who or when this survey was conducted. It differs somewhat from the survey of this same cemetery that was conducted in 1997. The names that are preceded by asterisks did not have visible stones in the 1997 survey. There are also some differences in names and dates on the stones that are still there. This cemetery is in very poor condition, most of the stones being heavily weathered marble.
