Excerpt from Inscriptions in the Early Gravestones on the Old New England Town Burying Ground Fairton
It is but natural our thoughts turn toward those who peopled this part of the county, who they were, and from whence they came. Few, however, of the first to settle within the present boundaries of the county were buried in this early grave yard. Following the custom of the time they were laid at rest in some favored spot about their habitations, where in unmarked and long forgotten graves, their dust has mingled with the earth they once trod, and we may not find them.
Some of their descendants, and settlers of a later date, found at last lodgement about the church in which they had worshipped, and congregations of the dead slept without the walls.
