Cemetery notes and/or description:
CLASSIFICATION: Community ground.
LOCATION: In the village of Rhinebeck.
CONDITION: Well cared for.
INSCRIPTIONS: 632 in number. Copied August 1 and 5, 1914, by J. W. Poucher, M. D., Mrs. Poucher, and Miss M. O. Johnston.
REMARKS: This cemetery was opened about 1845 in which the authorities of the village of Rhinebeck prohibited interments in the churchyards of the village. It is governed by trustees incorporated as "The Rhinebeck Association Cemetery." This list does not include the stones in the more modern section of the cemetery. It does, however, contain inscriptions of dates prior to 1845, indicating removal from earlier locations.
