From Town Crier town historian Margaret Hadsell article (
visit link)
"Jacob Rounds purchased 25 acres of land bounded on the north by the Susquehanna River and on the south by a portion of River Road, now Front Street. One tenth of an acre in the southwest corner of the property was used for a cemetery where 24 members of the family are buried. Jacob’s death in 1833 is believed to be the first burial in the cemetery. Burial records have not been found; all information is compiled from grave markers and secondary sources. No longer an active cemetery, it is maintained by the Town of Vestal. The cemetery was designated a Local Historic Landmark in 2012. "
