First Grave in Green Lawn Cemetery

Bainbridge, Chenango County, NY

Bainbridge Republican, Jan. 17, 1924

 



Mr. Editor:  I noticed in your last week's issue an account of the first grave dug in your Green Lawn cemetery forty years ago January 6th [1884], and the man's name was Scott.  Yes, I well remember it, his name was David Scott, he was my brother and I attended his funeral.  It was a very cold day, 20 degrees below zero and I drove 12 miles through deep snow to get there--This note is from Mr. O. Scott at Masonville.
