PHS Cemetery Restoration Project - PHS has begun restoring an Old Cemetery located on Route 311 (across from Brickhouse Road). So far we have cleared bush and weeds, and found over 200 headstones.  Most of these headstones are buried deep into the ground, teams of volunteers are working to uncover and restore these headstones.

Notable headstones we have found so far are some of the members of the Pell family (of Pelham, New York), who came north during the Revoluntionary War to escape, the war trouble down in what is now Westchester County.

We would love to have more volunteers. If you are interested please email us info@pattersonhistoricalsociety.org  Enjoy the slide show of our project below!
