This cemetery is located on the south side of Colby Street, west of Washington Street in the Town of Ogden, New York.
The tombstones in this cemetery have been copied at least three before. About 1928, Mrs. Mary B. Wells & Frances M. Witmer of the Te-car-na-wunna Chapter (LeRoy, NY) of the Daughters of the American Revolution copied the tombstones. Mrs. Herbert Smith of the Irondequoit Chapter (Rochester, NY) of the D. A. R. copied the tombstones in September. She was assisted by Miss Ida Colby, who was a descendant of Abraham Colby and added personal knowledge of some of the people buried here. In 1966, Mrs. Pearl D. Smith copied the tombstone inscriptions. She also was a member of the Irondequoit Chapter of the D. A. R. A master list was made and compared to the tombstones during a visit to the cemetery on 15 Aug. 1999 by Richard Halsey.
The earliest tombstone is that of Mary Colby, the wife of Ephraim (see photo above).
