What it says

A compiled genealogy of the families of the East Kill valley (East Jewett, Greene County, New York), arranged by cemetery plot, with the gravestone inscriptions. A lending copy on archive.org, read only as full-text search snippets for research/mcmillan/Fairchild_Raymond_Woodworth.md (October 2026), so the passages are fragments. In copyright; quoted briefly.
