Some of the first generation Dutch founders of New York are buried here, way back before the Mayflower. Ogden is the surname, and they are my relatives. I can honestly say that besides Native Americans, my family were the first ones here (sans Viking settlements), well before the Mayflower. 1545 was when my 10th generation (I think) grandfather founded the Jamaica Queens area. When I discovered this I realized that while I may not be an original American (like the indigenous population although they migrated too) I am as OG NY'er as it gets!
Prospect Cemetery is on the campus of York College, CUNY.
This is an historic cemetery with many Revolutionary war veterans buried. A fuller description can be found at:
Money has been spent in upgrading the Building there and the Cemetary has been cleaned up.
Needs to be cleaned up again. Not well maintained.
