The following is from the 1881 book, "The History of Sussex and Warren Counties, New Jersey," by James P. Snell:


"There are but three cemeteries in Blairstown township that are used as such at the present day, � one at Blairstown, one at Jacksonburg, and one in School District No. 72, in the southeast corner of the township, on the road from Blairstown village to Hope village."

The following are a few of the inscriptions upon the headstones and monuments in the burial-ground in School District No. 72 [note--this appears to be what is now called "Union Brick Cemetery"]:
