WASHINGTON COUNTY (NY) POORHOUSE CEMETERY NUMBERED STONES -- D - F

Note: Information in the last column came from the entry in the actual interment lists UNLESS it is in parentheses. The interment lists gave quot;nationality"However, any information in parentheses comes from an Inmate Registration Certificate which gives only "birthplace".

Note: Six stone numbers were never assigned (possibly broken before use?): 128, 139, 140, 169, 199. Four stone numbers were assigned twice -- highlighted below: 45, 104, 149, 178.  The assignment of one stone (202) was too illegible to be read.

STONE #	CERT #	LAST NAME	FIRST NAME	AGE	DATE of DEATH	CAUSE of DEATH	COMMENTS	NATIONALITY or BIRTHPLACE
60	01545	DAMON	OTIS T.	52	3/31/1900	EXHAUSTION
83		DE RIDER? DE RIDDEN?	CHARLES	75	2/23/1903	DEBILITY & OLD AGE
126		DELANO	WILLIAM	54	1/5/1910	PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS		FRENCH
112		DETRICK ? DETRICH	HENRY	43	3/30/1907	DIED IN A FIT		AMERICAN
197		DICKENSON	GEORGE	80	11/13/1921	OLD AGE	from KINGSBURY	AMERICAN
It must be noted that in this entry on the interment list mention is also made of burial at Kingsbury.  However, there is no reference to any other body being assigned this stone number -- and the stone still stands on a grave in the cemetery. It seems likely that, at the time the entry was made, it was assumed that burial would be elsewhere. However, that may not have happened and subsequently this stone was assigned and burial carried out at the poorhouse cemetery. That seems logical; but we will appreciate corrections if anyone has further information.
62	01502	DINES	ANN(A)	73	5/31/1900	OLD AGE & EXHAUSTION		(CANADA)
136		DOERR ? DEUER?	CHARLES	82	11/15/1911			GERMAN
232		DONEY ?	ALBERT	76	11/10/1927	OLD AGE	from GREENWICH
157		DOTTON ?	LENARD	68	7/25/1916		from WHITEHALL	AMERICAN
138		DRISCOLL	DANIEL		6/5/1912			IRISH
7	01323	DRISCOLL	HELEN	81	8/6/1892	OLD AGE		(IRELAND)
86	01471	DUELL	WILLIAM W.	74	6/9/1903	DEBILITY & OLD AGE		(NY)
8	01362	DURKEE	ARCHIBALD	67	8/27/1892	CONSUMPTION		(NY)
65	01597	DURKEE	ERASTUS	70	9/25/1900	EXHAUSTION
104	00002	DUTCHER	CORDELIA	65	2/11/1908	SENILITY		AMERICAN
This number (104) appears to have been assigned twice -- also to someone whose name is illegible and who died in 1906. It seems logical to assume that the person who died earlier may have been exhumed and buried somewhere else.
102		DUTTON	JAMES	42	9/27/1905	CONSUMPTION		IRISH
17	01387	EAGAN	THOMAS	36	2/15/1895	DELERIUM TREMENS		(NY)
149		EDIE	BENJAMIN	72	4/4/1915		from GREENWICH
This number (149) appears to have been assigned twice -- see also ALEXANDER HOUSTON who died 2/8/1915. It seems logical to assume that the body of Mr. Houston may have been exhumed for reburial elsewhere. The stone with that number could then have been used for Mr. Edie.
13	01405	EVANS	JOHN	64	7/18/1893	PERITONITIS		(WALES)
242		EYCLESHYMER	CHARLES	65	11/24/1926	CIRRHOSIS of LIVER
146		FARMER	ANN	83	9/18/1911
159		FISHER	NATHANIEL	81	9/13/1916		from FORT EDWARD	AMERICAN
186		FITZGERALD	JOHN	73	10/9/1920		from HEBRON	IRISH
It must be noted that in this entry (186) on the interment list mention is also made of burial at Hebron. However, there is no reference to any other body being assigned this stone number -- and the stone still stands on a grave in the cemetery. It seems likely that, at the time the entry was made, it was assumed that burial would be elsewhere. However, that may not have happened and subsequently this stone was assigned and burial carried out at the poorhouse cemetery. That seems logical; but we will appreciate corrections if anyone has further information.
