Newtown - Burroughs Family Cemetery - Elmhurst

Burroughs Family Cemetery - North side of Alstyne Ave. east of 94th St. behind the C. Card House. There were 16 stones dating from 1793 through 1812 and one from 1871. In 1954 this plot was sold by the city but the sale was withdrawn. In 1985 it was a weed strewn lot with no stones between a service station and an auto body repair shop. This view is of the first line of stones from Alstyne Ave.
