PRUYN & FAULKNER CEMETERY

Pruyn-Faulkner Cemetery photos were contributed by Jack Williams. "My images clearly show the inscription on the gate "PRUYN & FAULKNER, 1863". I do not think it is the same as the "Faulkner Graveyard at Mill Point." The only stone we found of direct interest to us was that of Elizabeth Shelp. I know of no reading of it.".
 2/20/00 We have a reading! The cemetery with Elizabeth Shelp VanHorne was published in Vol. 73 of the compiled NYS D.A.R. records, named "Van Horne Graveyard". Location was given as "Town of Amsterdam, located near Mill Point." This cemetery was copied by Helen Lyons Wikoff (Mrs. H.E.), who was chairman of the genealogical records committee for the Ft. Washington Chapter of the NYDAR. There were several transcription errors - notes in brackets are mine. Corrections from Van Horne researchers would be very much appreciated.
