 INSCmi^TTONS 
 
 ON 
 
 TOMBSTONES IN NEW HAVEN. 
 
 ERECTED PRIOR TO 1800. 
 
 From the settlement of the town, in 1638, the central upper part of the 
 present City Green was used as the common place of burial ; the latest 
 interment being (it is believed) that of Mrs. Martha Whittelsey, who was 
 buried by the side of her husband, the Rev. Chauncey Whittelsey, in Oc- 
 tober, 1813. In 1797 the Grove Street Cemetery began to be used, the 
 first interment being that of Mrs. Martha Townsend. 
 
 In 1813 the present Center Church was placed on the Green, over the 
 tombstones of about one hundred and forty persons, whose names 
 are engraved on tablets in the vestibule. Between 1795 and 1831 most 
 of the monuments on the Green were removed to the Gr6ve Street 
 Cemetery, where they now are, some of them in private lots, and the re- 
 mainder (about four hundred and seventy) ranged in approximately 
 alphabetical order against the west and north walls of the enclosure. 
 The oldest stone thus removed, which is now legible, is that erected in 
 memory of Samuel Hodshon (or Hudson), who died August. 36, 1673. 
 being, No. 403 in the following list; the only stone older than this, 
 remaining in its original location on the Green, is that inscribed 
 E. W.. and numbered 936 in the following enumeration. 
 
 These pages include copies of all the legible inscriptions prior to 1800, 
 now to be found in the Grove Street Cemetery, in the crypt under the 
 Center Church, and on the neighboring Green. For the sake of easy 
 reference the inscriptions from the crypt are printed in heavier type. 
 
 The ari'angement of the names is alphabetical, with the partial excep- 
 tion that parents and minor children are grouped together under the 
 father's name. Prefixed to each inscription is an indication [within 
 brackets] of the location of the original stone. The annotations are 
 numbered according to the inscriptions to which they refer. 
 
 The editor's task has been essentially lightened by the permission to 
 make use of a careful and elegant transcript of the epitaphs in the 
 Center Church crypt, made two years ago by Mr. Henry Trowbridge, Jr. 
 
 Franklin B. Dexter, 
 
 November, 1883.
