======================

I am retired so I have time to walk through the cemeteries and take pictures. In mid July 2010 I started a project to record as many memorials for the cemeteries in my county (Broome, NY) with pictures that I could. This project is drawing to a close. I have completed all the cemeteries that I am working on. There are still 4 other cemeteries being worked on by others. I have moved on to cemeteries in Susquehanna PA and Tioga NY.

The following link will show all the cemeteries in the surrounding counties photographed (by me and others!) and added to Find A Grave:

Broome County NY Cemeteries
Tioga County NY Cemeteries
Susquehanna County PA Cemeteries

If I have added memorials for any of your relatives, please thank me by visiting a nearby cemetery and add the gravestones there for others to find their relatives.

You have my permission to use any picture taken by me for private uses. For public use, you may use them as long as I am given credit. For commercial use, please contact me.

If any of the memorials I have created need updates, please contact me. If any are a relative of yours and you want to manage them, let me know and I will transfer them. Please use the edit tab and SAC to ask for a transfer or update.

Mary Philips
Thank you for putting the picture of Mary Philips grave marker online. It's not the Mary Philips that I was hoping for as my Mary Philips was born Apr 24,1891 and died April 6,1936 and the death certificate said Mount Hope Cem.

Thank you again

Samuel and Julia M. Dawson etc. Mount Hope Cemetery, Hastings, NY
Thanks so much for the headstone photo! I was wondering if you are also related to the Dawson's? I noticed that you lived in Broome County, NY. I am curious as to what brought you to the Westchester area? I was delighted and surprised at getting a photo from Mount Hope because (from my experience and some other volunteer's experiences) they are not the friendliest to work with (to put it mildly). Did you take many other photos from Mount Hope (Hastings, Westchester, NY)?

Paul, thanks so much for the photographs of the graves of Nancy & Joseph Bayette. Sorry for the delay in responding, I just found this in my over-stacked email inbox.

RE: Hotchkiss Photo
It was a perfect day today as you can see. Some of the stones are really dark and pitted. Hard to see. I spent time with the caretaker and went thru records to find 2 of the stones. They are not all together.
