William Townsend of Selden, New York paid his respects to his ancestors' burying ground at the Townsend Cemetery in East Hills. Assisted by Howard Kroplick, Co-president of the Roslyn Landmark Society, William documented the headstones and removed brush from the burying ground.
Last December, the Roslyn Landmark Society received a $10,000 grant from the Robert D. L. Gardiner Foundation for a joint project with the Town of North Hempstead to restore the Townsend Cemetery. Work is expected to begin later this spring.
