Marty, your request for help on cemetery law made the Franklin County rootsweb list. The New York State Department of State regulates cemeteries, and you can find significant resources online at http://www.dos.state.ny.us/cmty/cemetery.html. You will also find a contact number there that should be able to help you. -- Carl Johnson [email protected] http://home.nycap.rr.com/cjohnson Researching Peck, Johnson, Cath, Goodrich, Crisalle in Franklin, Essex, and Schenectady Counties, NY
