Baldwin Cemetery: Notes | ||
|---|---|---|
 |
This small cemetery was once associated with the first Methodist Church building in Yates County, in 1807. It was on land once owned by George Wheeler Jr., who is buried here along with members of his family and others from the surrounding neighborhood.
The plot is easily accessible from the road, having an iron fence and a gate with the name of M. L. Baldwin, who owned the farm in the latter part of the 19th century. The adjacent highway was named for him, and the cemetery is usually called by that name, since his parents are buried here. The cemetery is abandoned and despite its importance, unmaintained. It has suffered much from neglect and many of the stones have fallen; a few have apparently disappeared. |
