Hon. George U. Harvey, President of the Borough of Queens.

Dear Sir: I beg to submit a report containing a description of private and family cemeteries in the Borough of Queens. The trend of progress in the Borough of Queens has in recent years almost completely obliterated the rural aspect of many sections of the 3oroiigh. Where sparsely settled viilages were, populated districts now stand, containing thousands of homes. Where once one viewed only farm land, now developments appear ranging from streets of ordinary width to majestic boulevards. This unprecedented progress has com- pletely erased from the topogrcphy of the Borough many private ceme- teries, some of which date back to the time of the first settlers on . In the course of the final mapping of the Borough of Queens, survey- ing parties of the Topographical Bureau, office of the Borough President, determined the location of many private cemeteries. Besides being of historical interest, the records contained in the epitaphs on the head- stones in these cemeteries are of considerable genealogical value, and may be c.f service to thosz seeking to prove their descent. Questions of land ownership might be clarified by the information obtained from these cemetery records. Believing that a permanent detailed record of each private cemetery would be of historical and genealogical, and even legal, interest to pos- la-::rl~tj, I I-ia~ehad [he irl~cripiionscontained on the headstones, together with the location of the graves, copied and compiled into book form. This book conta~qsan index map of the private cemeteries, a detailed sketch of each, and a list of the inscriptions that appear on the head- stones. A legend is shown on the index map containing the name of each cemetery; opposite the name is a nutnber, which number corresponds to the number on the rnap indicating the approximate location of the cemetery. The detailed sketch of each cemetery shows the exact location of each grave; a number is given to each grave on this sketch.

Respectfully,

CHARLES U. POWELL, Engineer in Charclc -- - EDITOR'S PREFACE

The Queens Borough Public Library rejoices in the posses- sion of records of some of these graveyards made before the Topographical Bureau started its file. The library records are, in several places, fuller than those of the Topographical Bureau. The two files have been combined since it is the aim of the editor to present these records in as fuil a form as possible.

It is a cause for rejoicing that such men as Mr. Powell and his associates are alive to the necessity of preserving for the use of future generations such iiiformation as is found here. It has been a pleascre and a privilege to work on this book and to cooperate with the Topographical Bureau in its com- pilation.

The editor wishes to acknowledge indebtedness to the work of the late William F. Wyckoff, Henry Onclerdonk, Jr., and William S. Pelletreau. Thanks are also due to Mrs. Josephine C. Frost of , Mr. Arthur White of Newtown, Mr. R. G. Debevoise of Woodhaven and Mr. W. A. D. Eardley of Brooklyn.

COPY OF A LETTER TO GEORGE G. DORN RE. THE INDIAN CEMETERY ON BROADWAY, EAST OF CORNELL'S LANE, LITTLE NECK

Little Neck, Long Island, N. Y. Dec. 2, 1919.

My Friend

In 1636 on account of the troubled conditions of New England the ancestors of James and Charles Wancus, \Wattere&, carme to what they called Little Neck, after their old home at Stratford, Conn., and named the nest village Great Neck, Cow Neck, Mad-man's Neck, Wigwam Pond, etc. The land grants spread around them like nzts. In 1642 Robert Hicks acquired a large tract about Hempstead and Flush~ng. Stephen purchased several thousand acres. Thomas Hicks in 1666 obtained from Governor Nichols c patent of 4003 acres, including Great Neck and Little Neck. As the Hiclts and Quakers waxed strong the glory of the family departed. The faniily graves were desecrated by the whites at the Point (now Douglas Manor, the burying ground of the Rocicawcy and Matine- cock Indians), ;hey had been forced from their burying ground overiook- ing the bay (now the golf ground on the old Thorne property at Great Neck), and the whites were closing in upon this little spot, and so accord- ing to the Records at Queens County Clerk's office, we read that Silvia Hicks or Hubbs purchased these nine acres which had always been her home, and paid for them in the usual way of civilization. So that is how along the roadside where the iron shoes of the pale face horses instead of the soft moccasin tread, sleep the dead of the family and several whites too poor to own a grave, for lo these many years.

(Signed) JAMES E. WATERS, Chief Wild Pigeon.

PAGE SEVENTY-THREE No. 23 WILLET BURYING GROUND

The Willet Farm was in the south part of Flushing where Cedar Grove Cemetery now lies and the Willet graveyard was near the northern line of the farm on Northern Boulevard.

In 1766 Thomas Willet sold the farm to Lieutenant Governor Cadwal- fadei Colden ieservii;g the right to bury his family in th~graveyard. In Colden's deed there is a clause giving him the right to be buried in this ground. In 1890 William S. Pelletreau visited this graveyard and copied such of the stones as were then legible and incorporated the information in a note to his "Abstracts of Wills" published by the New York Historical Society.

The Colden estate was conf~scatedand sold after the Revolution and later became the Cedar Grove Cernet~ry. Colden's house was the office of the cemetery, and the graveyard was left undisturbed. In late years the house was torn down and a fireproof structure toolc its place. The cemetery was graded over and the graveyard has entirely vanished. Pelie- trecu's is the only record we have of this old family. Here the mortal remains of Governor Colden are supposed to rest.
