Regarding Dutch Reformed Church of Mayfield. This early church was established in 1793 and stood on this site until 1826. The churchyard was used for burials of Mayfields early settlers. The oldest burials are on the side near the marker. This cemetery now connects with the modern one. Note: Please see the large Getman Memorial Monument. Captain Getman commanded a Civil War Cavalry Unit and this memorial honors both the captain and his men. It is yet another marker suggested by then Town Historian E.J. Rullifson in 1936.
