The small Walrath Cemetery was located "on the road leading past Moyer Cemetery about one mile to the east". The reading was also done by Mrs. C.W. Crim, who noted that "the stones in the above cemetery are all down, but four white posts are still standing at four corners of this home plot".

BAUDER, Margaret | d. Nov. 12, 1846 | ae 23 years | wife of David Bauder |
Mrs. Crim made two visits to the Gersham Smith Cemetery and each reading had some of the few burials and none of the others. This is a combined list of her 1929 visit and her undated visit. She was unsure of the dates of some, which shows the subjectivity of tombstone reading, even by the same person on different occasions. This cemetery was located "north of Van Hornesville on the road from Jordanville to Starkville".

This cemetery was located "on Wiltse Hill in the town of Stark". We don't know who copied this cemetery but the reader may have been Mrs. C.W. Crim or Mrs. Inez Paine Henderson, who copied other cemeteries in the area in the 1920s and 1930s. Wiltse/Willse Hill is in the extreme southeast corner of the Town of Stark, where Otsego and Montgomery Counties meet Herkimer County, near the hamlet of Willse Four Corners and the Otsego Township of Springfield.

1/28/07 This cemetery was located "on the road between Van Hornesville and Starkville", which should be Rte. 80. This is a combined list of two readings done on unknown dates by two different people. The first copying was made by Inez Paine Henderson. A second reading was made by Mrs. C.W. Crim. Mrs. Crim noted that there were monuments with multiple names - the Hallenbeck and DeGarmo Monuments. The latter monument and names on it were not noted by Mrs. Henderson. There is much discrepancy between the readings, and differences are marked by a slash (/) with Mrs. Crim's interpretation following. If these are your ancestors, or you have further information on these people, please contact the Site Coordinators.

1/28/07 From Chris (Countryman) Janczuk
I believe that the maiden name for Elizabeth Hollenbeck born 1814 was Countryman and her nickname was Betsey. She was the daughter of Isaac Countryman and Delia Shenholds. I'm not sure if that's the same person as the Delia Drain on the webpage.
I'm also not sure there are 2 Isaacs. The death year for the first Isaac may have been mixed up with Delia's DOD, which was April 9, 1856. Delia Shenholds was born Oct 4, 1792. The Isaac who was a soldier in the War of 1812 was the son of John I. Countryman Sr and Elizabeth Hoke. Isaac was born on June 15, 1792, wed Delia Shenholds on June 25, 1812 and died April 16, 1875.
The entry for COUNTRYMAN, Erma/ Elvira, d. 1842/d. Dec. 30, 1844, 2 years, dau. of John and Elizabeth/ Elista Countryman may be the daughter of John Countryman and Elizabeth Backus. The dates, age and name are close to their daughter Alvira who was born January 1, 1843 and died December 29, 1845. John was the son of Isaac Countryman and Delia Shenholds.
The dates I have for Marquis Hollenbeck are birth Oct. 3, 1851 and death May 1908.

1/29/07 Information from Asst. Coordinator Lisa Slaski (not related to these families):
The DeGarmo cemetery:
Emerancy, dau of Uriah Burst, must have died in 1862. Uriah was born in 1837 and living in Stark census with wife, Martha, and one child in 1870 census.
Isaac Countryman is in the 1870 census for Stark (b. about 1793), so I'd say the 1875 date is correct He's not in the 1880 census and the 82 years old lines up well with the 1875 date.
Alfred Snyder was born about 1854 according to the 1870 census, so the date of 1885 makes sense.
11/11/97 From William McKerrow
JANE DE GARMO McKERROW (January 8, 1851 - March 21, 1874)
Jane's parents were Abram and Harriett KLING DeGarmo. Her sisters and brothers were Luther, Martin, Clarence Price (adopted) and Ester. Her father, Abram, owned a grist mill in the town of Stark, New York.
