Fish Cemetery
Igerna, Warren County, New York
Lat: 43° 42' 51"N, Lon: 73° 53' 36"W
Contributed by Elaine Cope, Nov 13, 2005 [copekecope@aol.com]. Total records = 54. 
To reach cemetery, drive south on Igerna Road from Community of Igerna for about 1.5 miles. 
Turn left onto Perry Road and you will see the cemetery on your right in just a short 
distance. 
Rumour has it that the cemetery was started by 3 women from the Fish family. It did start
out as a family cemetery and almost everyone here is related somehow. The list below shows 
burials in the mid 1800s. I believe the cemetery is now owned &/or kept up by the county or 
town. 
There were 3 sunken unmarked graves in back of cemetery next to CW Cowles w/ rocks to mark 
them. A few of the stones are falling but most are still in good shape. 
This is a complete transcription of all the graves compiled by Tim Dewell and I on Sep 14, 2004.
