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.

Richmond County Poor Farm Aka: Farm Colony

Abandoned, located West side of Brielle Avenue and North of Rockland Avenue.

History: During the early years of operation, those who died were laid to rest in a small cemetery in the northern-most corner of the property usually without a grave marker.

Since many records were destroyed, no one is certain how many were buried there. This cemetery operated as the final resting place for the indigent until about 1905.

Map location is approximate.
