While on our excursion through small Adirondack towns yesterday, we stopped at a small old cemetery in Athol. I have ancestors from the towns of Athol, Thurman and Stony Creek. I was wondering if there may have been any of them buried in this particular place. We stopped and were lucky enough to find ancestors with the names Frost, Aldrich and Larkin. I think they are brothers and sisters of my direct ancestors, but it was still exciting to find a connection to my family history in one of these beautiful old towns.
