Old Burying Ground, Long Island

The Hortons who inhabited Long Island in the early days were Congregationalists.  We used that knowledge, and some information offered by a woman who was cataloging the grave stones in the cemetery where Barnabas Horton was buried, to identify another cemetery to check out.

We were able to locate grave sites for second, third, and fourth generation Hortons in the Old Burying Ground, including this one who died in 1772.
