Regarding Quaker Meeting House / Quaker Cemetery. This yellow-on-blue New York State style marker was missing when this marker page was originally submitted. As of 7 FEB 2016, the Uncle Sam marker for this site is void of text and on the ground, resting on its post. It had read, "Friends Meeting House. Known locally as Cobblehurst, this beautiful cobblestone
building was built in 1836, and served as a Quaker Church until 1905. The adjacent Friends Cemetery has burials from 1822."
