I was looking for my earlier Higbys and finally found again the cemetery I had visited once before, which is not listed on Jane's site. This is the website for the Old Westfield Cemetery. http://www.interment.net/data/us/ct/middlesex/westfield.htm I had remembered "Boardman," which turns out to be the road it's on. I don't know why it is not on Jane's site. It's quite picturesque, but apparently uncared for and decaying. Norma Unger

Old Westfield cem in Middletown, aye? OK, out there, who wants to go to the Godfrey Library and photo-copy that cemtery? (Interment doesn't have complete enumerations). You photo copy it and send it to me and I'll transcribe it. (that goes for other cemeteries, too).

Coralynn.....since I'll be in CT soon, maybe I can go to the Godfrey and copy the Old Westfield Cemetery internments. There may not be any more than already seen on the Old Westfield page http://www.interment.net/data/us/ct/middlesex/westfield.htm It's a tiny place, very old--1700s, and some stones are extremely hard to read. I tried to find Boardman Lane on mapquest and yahoo....but nothing. So will have to do what I did before and ask around. Maybe the Godfrey will have a more exact location. Since I've never been to the Godfrey, I would like to see it....maybe take my grandson. My son graduated from Wesleyan, but at the time we had no idea we had so many ancestors there or that Higby mountain was named for our first ancestor in that line. Norma Unger

Norma, If you go to the Godfrey, tell them you're getting materials for Jane Devlin's site; they'll treat you like royalty. Another cemetery I didn't get yet is Old Center Cemetery in the book with the Middletown cemeteries in it. If you want to transcribe it, feel free, but if not, send it to me and I will.
