Edited/expanded 8/5/2018 N.B. At the request of descendants of John Goodrich, the claim of a 1680 surviving gravestone for John Goodrich at this cemetery accompanied by a fake gravestone photo has been removed. John has no gravestone at this cemetery and may never have had one to begin with. If he did have one it had long perished prior to 1899.
