History

In 1853, James H. Weeks and his wife Susan, purchased a tract of land near their home for the purpose of building an Episcopal Church. Upon completion of the Church, Mr. and Mrs. Weeks named the edifice, St. Andrew's Church, for the day on which a beloved grand-daughter had been interred in 1850. The Rev. Charles H. Gardiner, missionary of St. Paul's in Patchogue, conducted the first service in 1854. William Weeks son of William Jones Weeks and Mary Croswell Weeks was the first person to be buried in the cemetery in 1856.

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
