Woolly Hill Cemetery aka Quaker Cemetery aka Chase Cemetery which is near Garrattsville, NY is a very old cemetery which is poorly attended. Climbing through brambles, weeds, branches etc. isn't easy. Interestingly, the ground itself is nearly all moss. Some stones are still fairly clear, but of course many aren't.
Abial Cook was the Revolutionary Soldier that I was aiming for and he and his family were way to the back.
His older headstone gives his name as Abial. The military plague may have the wrong spelling??
