Herkimer Home Burial Ground
The Herkimer Home Burial Ground, also called the Herkimer Homestead Cemetery, is located near Gen. Nicholas Herkimer's home in Little Falls, NY. Nicholas was buried here as well as his brother, George Herkimer, and George's wife, Alida Schuyler, in addition to other Herkimer relatives. The grave of General Herkimer remained unmarked until 1847, when a grandnephew purchased headstones for him, his first wife, Maria Dygert, and for George and Alida.
Photos of the Herkimer family burials can be found here.
The pictures below (unless otherwise noted, were taken during a trip by Sandra Koehler Lee and her family in July 2016. Sandra is a 5th great granddaughter of George Herkimer. Some better quality photos are available on their Findagrave Memorials; apparently some tombstones have deteriorated in the past few years.
