THIS BOOK

This book has been donated by me, Peter B. J. Snyder, as a result of my Boy Scout EagleProject. This was not at all required by the Commission or even asked for, but I felt that it wouldbe a great help to them.

Because there were many more names of deceased in the graveyard than there werestones (since many stones had two or more names on them), I wanted a person-by-person list togive to the Historic Commission. Rather than just a short little index, I decided that each personin the graveyard should have a separate page with all the info and photo in an acid-free plasticpocket in a three ring binder.

Section 1 - 16 stonesSection 2 - 36 stonesSection 3 - 31 stonesSection 4 - 9 stonesSection 5 - 19 stonesSection 6 - 15 stonesTOTAL stones we found were: 126 STONES in WEEKS CEMETERY

TOTAL names or initials of deceased found on stones: 178 names

There is an alphabetical listing of each name of a deceased person. There was alsoanother index I created that listed people by stone and section, so that groups were kepttogether. There is a list of poems and verses taken from legible stones.

This extremely thick book, along with a CD of all the photographs, has been donated byme to the Marlborough Historic Commission.

• Form [designed by Peter B. J. Snyder] to record gravestones• Index of graves & deceased

1. Alphabeticallist2. By Section/Stone3. Veterans

• Surveyor's map with sections labeled• Poems on various stones

CHOSING A PROJECT:

I called the City of Marlborough's Pricilla Ryder for suggestions on a project for myEagle Scout badge. She suggested Weeks' Cemetery needed to be recorded. This particularproject appealed to me probably because my home schooling has included much history over theyears, and I saw the value in recording this information for future generations.

Pricilla Ryder directed me to Gracie Lyons (of the Marlborough Historic Commission).

Mrs. Lyons sent me a large packet of information about Weeks Cemetery outlining itssignificance in the National Register of Historic Places. Mrs. Lyons was retiring in the summerof 2007 but she left me in the hands of her replacement, Gary Brown.

I contacted a surveyor to come on the project day to measure the grass walk way and theperimeter, as the Historic Commissioned asked. Surveyor, Tom DiPersio, was very eager tohelp, as he was also a scoutmaster for his son's Webelo troop.

SELECTING A DATE FOR THE PROJECT:

The project was done on November 4-5,2007, and a short pick-up day to confirm a fewdetails on April 24, 2008. I had the aid of a member of the Historic Commission, Joan Abshire,Boy Scouts and parents from Troop 303 Marlborough, as well as some Webelos.

Despite some set backs due to rain and also my dislocated knee, the November projectdate was bright, sunny and dry. We were able to accomplish all the recording easily in one day.We took photos of each stone as well, this added enormously in "revisiting" each stone, beingable to zoom in with the computer image and seeing verses and dates more clearly sometimesthan even in person.

ON PROJECT DAY:

The first thing to do was to divide the cemeteryinto six sections (see attached map). I decided wherethe sections would go, pointing with my crutch, tellingthem where to lay down caution tape. They firsthammered down wooden stakes to differentiate thesections. Then I directed them to put the caution tapeon the stakes, low down to the ground so we could stepover it. In order to let every one know which sectionwas which. I had made some numbers on poster boardand attached them to a stake which was thenhammered into the appropriate section. I think it waspretty useful so it was easy to say, "Go to section 4," as apposed to, "Go to that part that's kindanorth west-ish".

After the caution tape had been laid down, I directed the volunteers to put post-it noteson each gravestone. The post-it note system worked like this: each one was labeled with twonumbers, the first number was the section of the cemetery, the second number was the individualgravestone itself. Thus a gravestone might be labeled, "3-14," which means it is in section 3,and it is gravestone number 14. To make sure that the post-it notes did not flyaway in the wind,duct tape was put on each one. As a precaution to protect the integrity of the stone, we attachedthese notes only to the very top horizontal part of each gravestone. Some sections had only 9stones, some had over 30.

Finally when the stone was recorded the person put a check mark on the post-it note ofthat stone to indicate that it had indeed been recorded so no repeats occurred. When a photohad been taken a "P" for photo would be marked on it so I'd know which stones still needed tohave a picture.

~ RECORDING THE STONES:I told each person to write down whatI had devised as needed on a form(see attached):

• Their own name (so I coulddouble check with them if Ihad any questions)

• the gravestone number• the stone type (circle one of 3

listed)• the stone quality (on scale of

1-10)• inscription quality (on scale of

1-10)• design if any• veteran, if indicated• the name of the deceased or

any inscription on the stoneAS WRITTEN on the stoneitself (e.g. other people on thestone, dates, poem if any)

• second side of the stone, usingthe back of the form ifnecessary.

As each volunteer finished with their stones, they would bring their papers to me, and Iput the forms in order by section and then by number of gravestones. That way when someonecame up and wanted more to do, I knew which stones still needed recording.

Some of the scouts worked together. But most of them found that working alone wassufficient. On a few very tricky-to-read obelisks I had several people go out and help each othertry to read the faded engraving.

The best part was that all the recording was done at once. The next day my Father and Ireturned to take just a few more photographs, as we'd run out of battery on the project day. Wetook down the caution tape, section signs, stakes, and post-it notes on that day as well.

POST PROJECT DAY:

Afterwards at home I started putting all the forms in alphabetical order. I typed a list ofthe people's names in the computer.

Each photograph was downloaded from the digital camera to my computer and labeledwith the deceased's name.

Our surveyor donated his time and talent submitting a map of the area with trees,boundaries, and some of the gravestones (which have on them my own section/stone numberingsystem). I added in the sections I'd used on this map for reference

The sections, due to family boundaries and all around less confusion, were altered afterthe project. For example section "3" became section "2". This was because I found out thatsome families were split into different sections even though they were right next to each other.My suggestion to anyone else doing such a project would be to map the stones by adjoiningfamilies and section the cemetery first on one day, then have volunteers come on the next day.This will avoid much confusion when recording the information and making a map for theHistoric Commission.

MY RECOMMENDATION:After spending so much time looking at these stones, I urge the Historic Commission to

consider restoring these few stones which are broken:ALLSTINE/MOORE in Section 4HOL[T], Bathsheba in Section 2HUNT, Ann S.lPhilomela in Section 2MILES, Sophia in Section 1PERRY, Lyman in Section 3PERRY, Newton in Section 3SEYMOUR, Charles in Section 4SEYMOUR, Clifford in Section 4SMITH, Abigail in Section 2WILLIAMS, Joseph in Section 2

And these stones which are ground markers but are fading need to be raised or cared for:HUNT, Cynthia in Section 2HUNT, Nancy in Section 2HUNT, T. Thaddeus in Section 2M.F .H. in Section 3

THANK YOU:I'd like to thank Priscilla Ryder for her suggestion of Weeks Cemetery.Thanks goes to Gary Brown, Grace Lyons, and the entire Marlborough Historic Commission for theirsupport and such a great project opportunity.For the volunteers, without which this would not have happened, my thanks.To Mrs. Neubauer for her suggestions and direction and helping on project day.To thank Tom DiPersio for all the time and effort he put into measuring and recording the cemetery'sterrain.A special thanks to Hannaford's and Price Chopper for donating gift cards so that we could purchasesnacks for the volunteers - I love your food.And my mother, not only for doing some computer work, but also providing me great emotional and, mostappropriately, grammatical encouragement.
