Middletown, NY, now a small-ish mall-studded city, was once included in the Wallkill Census. What post office is written in on your Census sheets? That will help you pin down the residential location a bit more (many of these earlier Censuses didn't include addresses - bummer!). There are other cemeteries in the area, even near Bloomingburg.  I'll have to take the time to type up the things I found in the "Blue Book", as I recently discovered it is called.

Does that sound right? Pat
