Beekman Cemetery, at the United Methodist Church,
Poughquag
Beekman Cemetery is an active cemetery on the grounds of the United
Methodist Church of Poughquag. The majority of the stones are
modern, the older stones are near the church. The cemetery appears
to be run seperately from the church. One could contact the
church, 915-724-5421, for the current phone number of the Cemetery
directors. Driveway to the church is at NW intersection
of Gardner road and Poughquag road (CR 7) in hamlet of Poughquag.
Dr. Poucher writes in his Cemetery book of Dutchess county, "Within it's boundaries was bult in 1839, a Methodist Church".
