Ever wonder where the poor in Suffolk County were buried? Well this is the place. It consists of rows of graves baring only numbers. There are a very small number of grave plaques with names on them. Those buried here were from the Suffolk County Home (poor house) and the Suffolk County Asylum.
A recently renovated count building nearby, still bares the name "The Suffolk Home" on its doorway. This is where many of the interred lived.
Number 63.
Under the year it says "Suffolk Home"

there is a cemetery at a church in setauket across the street from Main street elementary (the old High School) as you enter old field and stongs neck. There are grave stones and concrete tables with markers inlay ed that have been there since the early 1700. One grave since 1690, These are original settlers and probably one of the oldest sites on the Island. Check it out. These are some of the original settlers of the united states and had worked hand and hand with the native Indians.
