Notes for Robert C. BARNUM

He contracted polio as a child; never married. [Note: He may have been confused with his brother Linus].
Maplecrest (Big Hollow) Cemetery, Town of Windham, Greene County, NY.
Section 1. The Maplecrest Cemetery (formerly known as the Big Hollow
Cemetery) is located along the west side of County Route 56,
three-tenths of a mile from the intersection of County Routes 40 and
56, in the hamlet of Maplecrest, Town of Windham, Greene County, NY.
The name of the hamlet was changed from Big Hollow to Maplecrest on
May 23, 1921. Burials made prior to that date should be recorded in
your genealogical records as having been made in the Big Hollow
Cemetery, as that is what will appear on death certificates and in
newspaper accounts. Burials made on or after that date should be
recorded as taking place in the Maplecrest Cemetery.
