Read More	This small family plot is on lot 59 in the extreme south-west corner of the Town of Cherry Creek. Since so many of you like to go look at these cemeteries we will tell you how to find it. Look at a map showing Sinclairville and Cherry Creek and you will see two roads out of Sinclairville joining at Thornton at the junction of the Cherry Creek Road. It makes a rough oval. The cemetery is on Route 85 soon after the junction. It is on the left about fifty feet in from the road in the middle of a cornfield. It is roughly ten feet square, a thicket of brush and small trees and there is a rusty wire fence lying on the ground. We didn't see any poison ivy, but it is a good place for it. This farm was once owned by John Luce who bought it from the Holland Land Company in April 1825. We found no stones for him and wife Sarah Smith but Clayburne has them listed in the Sinclairville Evergreen Cemetery and he also listed those we did find. We have not checked the Evergreen Cemetery. It may be that Mrs. Sampson placed them there so that the record would not be lost. According to the death record of their son William Ryland Luce, sometimes called William and sometimes Ryland, his father John Luce was born in Canada. Ryland always said, according to relatives, that he was next to the oldest of 13 children and that his father fell off a roof when he (Ryland) was quite young and he had to help support his mother and other brothers and sisters. But when John Luce died in 1866 Ryland, born in 1831, was married and had four children of his own. His death record firmly states he was a son of John and Sarah Smith Luce so there was something wrong with Ryland's memory. He died in 1900. We have been unable to find out any information about Brigham Smith. Sarah must have been his daughter. Are there any Smith descendants besides the Luce family? We have wondered about the Luce connection between Brigham's wife Eliza Luce and John Luce. Was she an older sister or his mother by a former marriage? John Luce was born 5 May 1803 and died 29 Aug. 1866. Sarah Smith Luce his wife was born 16 Feb. 1810, died 2 Sept. 1882.
