The Patterson Family Graveyard is located on what was the Patterson farmstead which
was established by Edward Patterson, an original purchaser when Middletown was established in 1667.
There are about 15 graves located on this site but many of the stones were almost completely
eroded and only
a few were legible. The following are the only stones we were able to decipher.
- Patterson / Stevenson, George S. ~~ 1892 - 1983
