Final Stop on the 30 Hour Journey

While at the Staatsburgh property the docent mentioned the family was buried in St James Church Cemetery, Hyde Park, which I knew to be the Roosevelt family’s church.

Have always wanted to stop and today was the day.

While the church was closed explored the famous cemetery which a local Boy Scout troop memorialized.

Here are some of the famous interred here.

Administer of George Washington’s oath
His tomb
A fireman who died in 9/11
Roosevelt family members
Roosevelt’s mother

One of his sons

The Bard Family Descendants

A Blackman who was a church rector

Quite an interesting visit and walk through history. For all those cemetery buffs a definite must see..
