Bay State Cemetery
a.k.a. Furnace Cemetery

Moriah, Essex County, New York

• The Bay State Cemetery was originally laid out by Major James Dalliba.  In past years the cemetery was overgrown.  At the time of this transcription it was well mowed.  Many graves (>50%) have no markers.  Many markers are white marble and have not withstood the effects of acid rain.  More than 15 of these could not be read.
• This cemetery was transcribed and photographed August 30, 2004 by Joe Harland.
