Inventory of Hewittville Cemetery - Potsdam, NY

In September 2013, I visited Hewittville Cemetery located on River road in the hamlet of Hewittville. The cemetery is set back from the road and access is via a drive that runs next to a house up to the cemetery. GPS: Latitude: 44.70345, Longitude: -75.01209

I photographed and recorded the tombstones within the cemetery as well as I could. Below is the inventory I developed during that visit. When a picture is available, the name of the person will be 'clickable' to bring up the picture. NOTE: The only names recorded here are for people who had markers that I could find in the cemetery. It does not include any other people who might have been buried but for whom no marker could be found. All comments can be directed to Anne M. Cady
