Fuller Cemetery

Fuller Cemetery was made in 1786 and was given to Ludlow in 1794. A hearse and a hearse house were stationed alongside this cemetery. 848 Center St Ludlow

EUNICE TEMPLE – FINDAGRAVE

This is a rare example of a gravestone set never being moved at all. For post-1776 burials, the headstone should point directly to the west and the footstone should face directly to the east. Eunice Temple’s stones both face outward from the burial. Her body is on the correct east – west axis.

Westhampton Center Cemetery

Westhampton Center Cemetery FINDAGRAVE is on land donated by the Reverend Enoch Hale (minister of the Westhampton Congregational Church). His house is at the intersection of Cemetery Road and South Street. The parsonage and the church are nearby. Hale at Findagrave

This cemetery contains the former burials at the Theophilus Edwards Family Tomb (Findagrave) and the Kingsley Cemetery Site. Those prior cemeteries seem to have been made in the 1770s and the Center Cemetery in 1790. Westhampton became a town in 1778. (The first settlers were from 1762.)
