    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: wisetruth Surnames: Kidney, Wilbur, Viele Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.dutchess/5892.1.1.1.1.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I thought the names you had listed were interesting. Wilbur Blvd. is located in my neighborhood in Po'keepsie. Are you sure Viele is spelled correctly? The name "Velie" is an old Dutchess county name. In Pleasant Valley, the Presbyterian Church on Route 44 has a large cemetery. Further up the road, going east, the Episcopal church also has a cemetery. There is an abandoned burying ground on Rte. 44 between Poughkeepsie and Pleasant Valley. I don't know if it has a name, but the Boy Scouts seem to clean it up once per year.The Dutchess County Historical society might have more information. I'll check out to see if they have a web site.
