Chris,

I'm fairly sure this was the Amwell German Reformed Church that was located
at Larison's Corner:

This website refers to the "Old Dutch Burying-ground" ... Peter YOUNG's
"remains were interred by the side of his wife's in the old Dutch burying
ground at Pleasant Corner...."

Larison's Corner had previously been called Pleasant Corner:

This church is now the United First Church of Amwell:

Subject: [NJHUNTER] Dutch burying ground


quoting from NJ Colonial Documents, Calendar of Wills 1771-1780, page 255:
"2 July 1771. TUNIS HOPPOCK, of Amwell Township, Hunterdon Co., yeoman.
To be buried in the old Dutch burying-ground in Amwell ..."

Can anyone identify this cemetery? I'm looking for burial place of
Hendrick Vandolah, who died 1741/1743 in Amwell Twp (now Delaware).
Later family members are buried at Barber burying ground but this "Dutch
burying ground" has me curious.

Thanks.
Chris Hankins
