| Trip to Yates County, NY, August 2001 In August
2001 a friend and I took a drive over to Italy and Naples, NY, to visit
the towns where the Edsons and Arnolds settled, as well as the cemetery
where they were buried.

A typical scene in Italy, NY, on a hot summer
morning. This photo was taken along the road which leads to
the Segar Cemetery.
The road was completely deserted apart from a couple
joggers, who were nice enough to give directions to two very lost
people. |
| Here's another photo of Italy. Most of the
county's land is used for farming. |

Look what we have here! When I saw this street
sign, I figured we must be heading in the right
direction.
This photo was taken on the way to the Barkers Cemetery,
alternately called the Italy-Naples Cemetery, because it falls close
to the county line dividing Naples, Ontario County from Italy, Yates
County.
After stopping there, we headed over to the Segar Cemetery, where
many of the Edsons were buried. |
