Thank you M.J. Matthews, who restored this cemetery as an Eagle Scout project! I freakin’ love this place, from the sweet stone walkway, to the stone pillars at the gate, to the iron fence, to the oaks spreading their arms over the Vandenbergh clan(buried there in the 1800s). The whole place is maybe 100 square feet, but well worth a visit. At the very least, it’s interesting to see this tiny pocket of Olde Boght survive the vast suburban housing development that metastasized around it. (Lucky M.J. Matthews got there when he did — a neighbor told us another person in the neighborhood had been carting away the original stone wall to use in his yard. Ouch.) And another shout-out to R. Arthur Johnson, who collected information on these tiny cemeteries in the 1970s, and to the William K. Sanford Library, which archives this information in the Colonie-Area Cemetery Digital Collection.
