Willora's list for the Northern Low Dutch Cemetery is dated the summer of 1965, The Southern Cemetery, 1963. The unknown writer indicates at the bottom of the page for the Southern Cemetery "that as far as the Southern Cemetery is concerned no attempt has been made to indicate the location of the many field stone markers that appear in the Cemetery. We have been informed that many of the stones have been removed over the years by vandals. Apparently this is true, for comparison of the above names (referring to the list), with lists made in earlier years, reveal many missing. Added note by person who originally made this list. He or she is unknown." No indication as to who made this list. The Northern Cemetery map does show the locations of the fieldstones with no inscriptions, "many thus indicated are probably footstones," Other than the list of names or initials, not further information given. It is also important to note that after 1800 several of those buried here were not of Low Dutch descent.

Offhand, I see two people who are listed on both the Southern and Northern Find-A-Grave lists: Susan Brinkerhoff David Demaree David's stone is pictured in his Find-A-Grave listings for both cemeteries - identical stone, different photos - but he does not appear on Glee's list for Southern. A transcription of his stone is under his name on Glee's list for Northern. Susan's stone is not pictured in either Find-A-Grave listing. She does not appear on Glee's list for Southern. Her date of death appears in both places, but her date of birth only in Southern. DOB in Find-A-Grave's Northern is "Unknown." I didn't look beyond David Demaree, so don't know if there are more duplications.
