Walton-Locke Cemetery
Moriah, Essex County, New York

This small family cemetery is located on the old Walton farm just north of Port Henry on the Westport Road.

NOTES: This transcription was compiled by Stephen Cywin
who wrote the following: "The cemetery was abandoned after 1868 and was vandalized around 1970. Starting about 18 months ago, several of my cousins and I began the process of bringing the title back into the family, with the intention of restoration. We now have title within the family. Fortunately we also were able to locate a transcript from about 1932, which is the most complete we know of. We appear to still have one unidentified grave. I have also been able to figure out the relationships of everyone on the 1932 transcript and have created a chart displaying those relationships, including individuals who are not buried in the cemetery but need to be included to illustrate the connections. This last piece took a great deal of research to complete."

Thank you to Paul Reese for the 2000 transcript, Joan Daby, Moriah Historian, for the 1932 transcript, and Linda Pumiglia, of the Bridport, VT Historical Society, for genealogical research.
