Bingo Cemetery

There are two public cemeteries in West Rochester today. But in its history, West Rochester, particularly West Hill, were in Goshen before 1848, the Goshen cemetery need be included as a third public cemetery in the history of West Rochester. It's confusing. We're not kidding. And those are only ones knows. There are anonymous field stones that look like grave markers, across from Cold Spring Farm on West Hill. And many believe at least some of the many carins on Chester Smith's land could be Native American burial grounds. What do you think? Probably not, but it would seem reasonable that some of the flatter land in Addison Co certainly could be, as it is in the basin of Lake Champlain, of which Goshen is but the first foothill out.

Besides private family burial grounds like those of the Reynold's, at the Johnson place in Bingo, or the Dutton plots in the Moosalamoo region of Goshen, the West Rochester Cemeteries are
