Rowland [Historian, Meade-Price Post 1208 American Legion (Wayne, NY) and Historian, Town of Wayne; Steuben County, NY] notes dated from 1981 to 1983. They have been edited for clarity and continuity. Loucks Cemetery is located at the SW corner of Alderman and Ridge Roads, where Frederickstown Baptist Society Log Church was established 1794. The Cemetery was established after 1794 and became inactive after 1834. On April 15, 1983, at the home of Marion Howell (Historian; Town of Orange; Schuyler County, NY), Rowland examined Church history that led him to believe that this corner was called “Salters Corners”. Thus Loucks Cemetery was earlier known as Salters Corners Cemetery and, later, Alderman Road Baptist Church Cemetery No. 1. The Frederickstown Baptist Society Log Church was moved by teams of oxen after 1830, but before 1835, to the SE corner of Alderman Road and Steuben County Route 87 (Hammondsport-Wayne Road). Alderman Road Baptist Church Cemetery No. 2 (Alderman#2) was soon established. Before 1840 the Church was moved about three miles SW to a third location in North Urbana, with no known third Church Cemetery. At that time membership was over 200. A group split off and formed a Baptist Church at Van Gordon and Dundee (SR 230) Roads, about eight miles to the NE. Rowland estimated the original Cemetery location to be 300 yards west on Alderman Rd, then 40 feet south. These measurements were based on conversation with farmer Delbert Scotchmer, who owned the property at the time. Delbert stated that he cut through a pile of wood ash while plowing. Rowland surmised that ash was dumped out the back door of the Church, pinpointing the location of the Church and Cemetery. At the time, Delbert was using some Cemetery stones as sidewalk pavers and others were buried in a cement patio. Apparently the stones had been stacked in a hedgerow. After Gary Loucks bought the Scotchmer property, he set the sidewalk stones aside until eventually recreating the Cemetery in its present location. There are no bodies buried with the stones. Disposition of stones buried in Scotchmer’s patio is unknown. Charles A.
