Description : The cemetery started as a small local burial ground in 1799. The cemetery features a monument to two nearby shipwrecks, the Bristol and the Mexico, in the winter of 1836-1837. The Bristol and Mexico Monument marks the mass grave of the 139 passengers, mostly Irish immigrants fleeing famine. The shipwrecks resulted in changes to New York Harbor approach practices. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015. Unfortunately, non of the original tombstones in lines 1 through 11 remain. These graves have been resold.
