About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Described in Old Gravestones of Ulster County, 1931, Dr J Wilson Poucher and Byron J Terwilliger; "Freer burying ground at Perrines' Bridge, North of New Paltz, copied September 27, 1924 by Miss Cornelia E DuBoise, Miss Sarah D Lefevre, and Byron J Terwilliger", then supplemented By Dr J Wilson Poucher with a second search in 1930. Another source states "at the south end of Perrines' Bridge". Today, I can find no trace of a burial ground near either the north or south sides of Perrines' Bridge, and suspect it may have been covered during the construction of I-87 in the 1950's, or located in the trees of Perrines' Park alongside I-87.

2014 update:
After finding the Deyo Burying Ground on the right side of River Road, just off Rt 32, south of Tillson. the description in Cemeteries of Ulster County book by Poucher indicated that the Freer Burial Ground was diagonally across the road. Checking the Topo map for this area confirmed this statement and showed both cemeteries. On a second visit to the area we found the Freer Burial Ground also on River Road on a rise of ground just before the first house on the left. Deyo Burying Ground is a little further on River Road and on the right.
