MEREDITH HOLLOW CEMETERY

off of Rt. 28 near Meridale

Latitude: 42° 22' 10.812" N, Longitude: 74° 57' 47.664" W, Altitude: 552.00 m

Note: Re: Town of Meredith Cemeteries - the Mertins cemetery and the R(enwick) Burns cemetery are really the Meredith Hollow cemetery and was the first cemetery in that area. Meredith Hollow was later named Meridale and the new cemetery is the Pine Grove. Meredith Hollow cemetery predates both farm names of Mertin and Burns. Behind is a small dam, on the Jay Gould map and other references a fulling mill was there but has totally disappeared, it employed a number of workers and weavers. --Jeremiah Palmer, November 2004
