Old Sauquoit Cemetery

Pinnacle Road, Town of Paris

Old Sauquoit Cemetery, Sauquoit, Town of Paris, Oneida County, New York.
Also called Presbyterian Cem. Named Union Cem. on 1873 county map.
Burials were made here at a very early date, but when the Sauquoit Valley Cemetery
(see forward) was opened, prior to 1853, many bodies were removed and re-interred
in the new cemetery. The following stones are all that remained in 1930 when this
census was made. The cemetery lies where Paris Hill Rd. crosses the DL&W Railroad
tracks, on the East side, about 100 yards South, on the first hill.
In November, 2000, only five stones remain standing in the overgrown cemetery.
