GUY CEMETERY
Located in the Town of Afton, Chenango County, New York on the east side of the main road (Route 7) between the village of Afton and the village of Nineveh in Broome County on the west side of the Susquehanna River.
Markers copied March 1990 by J. Kelsey Jones.
This a very old burial ground with many plain markers of native stone bearing no inscriptions. There would appear to be about thirty five native field stones placed as markers. The oldest dated marker bears the date of 1798 for Abigail Bridgman.
There are four rows of markers. Row one begins on the south edge of the cemetery and the markers are copied from west (road side) to east. Anything in parenthesis is added information by the compiler for clarification. Single spacing of type indicates names appearing on one marker or monument. Several footmarkers have been removed from their original location and placed in the same row as the headstones which they belong to. Spellings are as they appear.
Anything in brackets [ ] is added information by Internet poster for clarification.
