SOME SMALL CEMETERIES
Town of Little Falls
Herkimer County, New York
The following information was generously contributed by Helen Lewis, a descendant of Eben Britton. Eben was an early settler of Little Falls, who operated a tannery and was considered to be a prosperous man of his time. The cemetery is located on the North side of Burt Road, believed to be on private property. Burt Road runs East and West, off Rt. 169, between Little Falls and Herkimer. The condition of the cemetery, writes Helen, "the first time we visited the cemetery, the pines were very small, the last time they were very large, and the stones almost impossible to find. The stones are all broken, and in the midst of some pine trees, that were allowed to over run it."
