(None of these appear to be in Old Gravestones of Dutchess)
 This cemetery is located on Rte. 44, Pleasant Valley just east of the Village
adjacent to Field's Auto Body

Many stones broken and down - so I offer these here for
preservation, future reference and in case they can be of help to any
one. I also cannot guarantee the accuracy of some of these as many were
difficult to read but I assure you I did my very best with what I had to
work with.
