Record of Burials

Copy of a book kept by Barent Bradt of the burials in the Reformed Dutch Church graveyard and under the church in the city of Albany, from 1722 to 1757 inclusive. Previous to 1703 Hendrick Rosebloom was clerk or sexton, and was succeeded in that year by Anthony Bradt, father of Barent. The first burial recorded under Barent Bradt's administrations was that of Teunis (Anthony) Bradt, his father.

This copy was made from the original book owned by the Hon. Harmanus Bleeker, by the compiler of this work, and subsequently, at his suggestion, was published in Munsell's Annals of Albany.

The compiler has introduced, in parentheses, only such explanations as were found necessary to show the relation to the families in this work.
