Martha Thanks for your information on Richard Pritchard and Mary Jeffreys. I tie into their daughter Sarah Pritchard who married John Holmes Smith. Several of Sarah & John's children married into the Waters family and the Woods family. You can find information on the Pritchard, Waters, Smith and Woods family on my web page Rosemary's Family History (http://www.inet-1.com/~markham/rosemary.htm). > Robin, > Just read your message about the Starbuck Hill Cem. in Chester. There is a > published list of people buried in the cemetery which is in Crandall Library in > Glens Falls. It was compiled by Hazel Randall Gordon and called "Starbuck Hill > Cemetery, Chestertown, NY." It was done many years ago, but no publication date > is listed. In the 1930s, a collection was taken to erect a fence around the > graveyard, and donations came mostly from descendants of those buried there. > The book lists the amount donated by each person. > I have the following ancestors buried there: Richard Pri(t)chard, d. May 27, > 1816, aged 45 yrs., 10 mos., 20 days; his wife Mary (Jeffreys) Pri(t)chard, d. > May 9, 1839, aged 73 yrs.; their son, Samuel Pri(t)chard, d. march 11, 1815, aged > 19 yrs., 6 mos, 28 days. The Prichards were my gr'gr'gr'grandparents, who came > to Warren Co., NY from Wales in 1802. I put the "t" in parentheses, as it was > not originally spelled that way, but several of their children began to use that > spelling. > Hope this helps clarify the issue. > > Martha Havens > Queensbury, NY
