From Town Crier article by town historian:
"According to cemetery records Daniel Garrison who died on June 6, 1831, is the earliest burial at Vestal’s second largest cemetery. Initially a one acre churchyard cemetery, additional purchases of land increased the size to 8 acres containing more than 4360 interments. The graves of Revolutionary War veterans and early settlers, John Rush and William Weston, are found here along with many of those who were instrumental in the growth and development of our town. The Randall family cemetery was relocated to Vestal Park in November 1964. Records are available for this active cemetery. "
