Inscriptions from the Cemeteries.
In the old grave-yard, now in the north-east corner of the cemetery near the center of the town, there are (2 monuments with memorials to 84 persons who died before 1801. Mattey, daughter of Joseph and Lois Hendy (see p. 85,) is supposed to have been the first person buried there. Doubtless there were earlier deaths among the settlers here, but no certain record of any has been found. In Holland's Hist. of Western Mass. (vol. 2, p. 516,) is the following: "The first death that occurred in Lee befell a child of John Winegar. The death occurred at Crow Ho !- low, and the child was buried on the West side of the river." Probably the statement was made on traditional authority.
It is supposed one of the earliest graves is marked by a rough stone bearing only the rudely carved letters S B. The name for which these letters stand has not been de- termined. The stone with the letter- I V D, marks the grave of Isaac VanDeusen, 8 years old, a son of Matthew VanDeusen.
Only two dated before 1801 are in the South Loe cemetery; one at the grave of Isaac Davis, the first settler, the other at the grave Abijah Stearns.
A few early graves in each cemetery are marked with uninscribed, unhewn slabs of stone. There are, also, several early graves marked in the same manner near the residence of C. E. Morley, Cane St., where, according to tradition, some of the settlers in that section named Gifford and Roberts were buried.
If any of the early inhabitants were buried elsewhere in town, all knowledge of their graves is lost.
Owing to weathering, probably some of the punctuation has been effaced from some .of the stones.
The interlined letters and words in the inscriptions here given, are shown as well as possible with ordinary type. On the stones they are close to the lines to which they belong.
