MILLBROOK CEMETERY
TOWN OF OXFORD
CHENANGO COUNTY, NY


This cemetery is located in the Town of Oxford, Chenango County, New York on the southwest corner of the intersection of state route 12 and Millbrook Road. It is about 2 miles south of the village of Oxford. There is no sign showing the name of this cemetery, but it sits up on a small hill with a walk-in "entrance" off Millbrook Road.

There are over 100 gravestones in this small cemetery, but probably fewer than 50% of them are readable. Many are broken, many are just weather worn, and many appear to be missing entirely.

If a name/word is not completely readable, I will add a question mark, ?, at that point to indicate that fact.

I will add gravestone readings and update dates untill I get all of the stones read, then I will state that I am finished.
