The DeWolf-Haring family cemetery sits on a homeowners front yard
The DeWolf-Haring Cemetery is one of the most unusual of the small cemeteries in Bergen County that I have seen. It sits right in front of someone’s front yard.
The cemetery probably at one time sat at the very edge of the farmland which is now a golf club and a neighborhood of McMansions. It shows the progress of the area as the farmland was sold off.

The DeWolf-Haring family; grandparents and grandson
It was interesting that the last person buried here was the wife of Martin DeWolf’s grandson. I am still trying to figure out how they had funeral services on the edge of someone’s front lawn.

The cemetery is nicely maintained and treated with great respect. I am not sure by either the town or the homeowner.

The DeWolf-Haring Cemetery sits on what was once the DeWolf Haring Farm. The house still exists down the road.

Dear Britney,
That would be fine. Please put it under Justin Watrel, Blogger VisitingaMuseum.com. That is the name of the blog site I write for WordPress.com. I am sure the cemetery is under two feet of snow now.
My cell is (201) 300-7959 if you need to reach out to me.
Have a good weekend.
Sincerely,
