Hope Cemetery and Mausoleum is a historic burial ground and neoclassical mausoleum located at the southern edge of the village of Newark Valley in Tioga County, New York, serving as the town's largest cemetery. Established in 1820 as a community-owned site during the early settlement period of the area, it has been expanded multiple times, including significant enlargements in 1866 and from 1868 to 1935, and now operates as a nonprofit managed by the Hope Cemetery Association. The cemetery features orderly rows of graves separated by paths named after early settlers, with gravestones and monuments representing every era of Newark Valley's historyfrom finely incised early-19th-century slate markers to ornate mid-19th-century marble pieces and 20th-century granite memorialsreflecting evolving local craftsmanship, social structures, and attitudes toward death.(Submitted on April 10, 2026, by Susan A.
