The Morehouses, Millingtons and Delabas also lived in the hamlets of Baker's Mills, Wevertown, Johnsburg, and North River, all in close proximity to the hamlet of North Creek and all in the town(ship) of Johnsburg. To get to the North River cemetery. travel north on Rt 28 from North Creek, turn left on 13th Lake Road at Towne's store just before the county line, go up the mountain a few miles and bear right onto Cemetery Road just after the firehouse. Go up to the top of the hill and just before the big turn is the cemetery on the right. The "new" cemetery further up on the left has no old graves before ca 1985. The only Huldah I remember hearing about is Huldah Bennett, a formidable looking older woman from the photos in my family's album. She and her husband had a farm and took in T.B. patients. She would have been somewhere between 60-80 years (my guess) in about 1910 when my mother's aunt arrived for the T.B. air cure in North River and they started snapping photos of the great wilderness that they fell in love with. This Huldah would have been way too young but I guess it must not have been an unusual name at the time. Phyllis Reed
Thank you for the directions. I will drive up this summer when I'm up to North Creek. When you mention TB Patients---I suspect that my father, was a TB Patient and I also suspect that he may have stayed with a Bennett woman. His discharge papers WWII had a code number and when I checked on this it sent me to vets TB site. Gloria Waldron Hukle P.O.
