Glen Dyberry Cemetery

The cemetery, alongside the Dyberry Creek, was granted organization in 1854^[1] and features meandering pathways, hillside plots, and many ornamented burial markers. The cemetery includes a mausoleum built in 1891^[2] and other notable features, making it a local landmark frequented by grave site visitors, walkers, and bicyclists alike.

The Honesdale Cemetery Company was incorporated by prominent Delaware & Hudson Canal Co. officials from an act dated January 26, 1854. Mr. and Mrs. John Torrey sold 18 acres near Dyberry Creek for $2,000 in 1859 for the cemetery and 49 lots were sold during the first sale. Roads named Central Avenue, Hillside, Willow, and Winding Way were laid out within the cemetery.^[2] It opened on November 25, 1859.^[1]

Members of prominent families—Appley, Dimmick, Greene, Lord, Searle, Torrey, and Young—are buried at Glen Dyberry. About 4,000 people were buried in the cemetery as of 1947.^[2] Soldiers who fought in the War of 1812 and the American Civil War are buried there.^[1]
