Notes:
I have a new cemetery I would like you to post in Orange County, New York. There are two Spragues there and one Sprague wife that I have taken photos of their markers. All three are currently posted and I will send in the photos as soon as the cemetery is posted. I have included a photo of the gates to the cemetery. To find the cemetery on Bing or Google, locate Belcher Road in Warwick, New York. Follow Belcher Road East to the end where it intersects with Kings Highway. Go South about an eighth of a mile and you will see the cemetery on the east side of Kings Highway with 5 large white storage lockers located directly behind the cemetery. On Bing you can see two white marble stones in the northern most corner of the cemetery that belong to William H and wife Leonora Sprague. Cemetery information as follows:
Locust Hill Cemetery was originally known as Berthold Cemetery after the name of the original land owner. It was later called Belcher Cemetery after a later land owner and is currently called Locust Hill Cemetery. It is located on the east side of Kings Highway in the Town of Warwick, Orange County, New York about 1/8th of a mile south of Belcher Road. The cemetery is no longer in use, but is well maintained. It is situated immediately adjacent to Kings Highway. The cemetery is small and can be walked in about half an hour. Stones go back to the early 1800s and include several civil war soldiers.
