INSCRIPTIONS	
		FROM 
PARSONS  CEMETERY
FLUSHING, LONG ISLAND


Burials in the old cemetery were as early as 1665. 

This little family burying ground now known by 
the above name contains all the grave stones which were removable 
from the old BOWNE Cemetery in Flushing, 
the PARSONS having inherited the BOWNE property.
