SUMMARY:Ithuel Hill: Long Island's First Stone Carver
DESCRIPTION:Back by popular demand\, Zach Studenroth\, SHHM President\, will conduct a series of four different walking tours of the Old Burying Ground\, one on each of the last Sundays of June\, July\, August and September. Meet at the flagpole at Union and Church Streets. Attendance is free; donations are appreciated. \nSag Harbor’s illustrious\, notorious\, and colorful residents have left their records in the old Burying Ground. From young John Peirson and Nathaniel Baker\, who were “unfortunately killed by the accidental discharge of a cannon while celebrating the return of peace” in 1815\, to the artistic work of Ithuel Hill\, Long Island’s first resident stone carver\, the old Sag Harbor Burying Ground preserves the history and personal records of its early settlers. The gravesites of African Americans and Portuguese immigrants\, who contributed to the growth and prosperity of the village\, will also be visited.

SUMMARY:Patriots of the Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Back by popular demand\, Zach Studenroth\, SHHM President\, will conduct a series of four different walking tours of the Old Burying Ground\, one on each of the last Sundays of June\, July\, August and September. Meet at the flagpole at Union and Church Streets. Attendance is free; donations are appreciated. \n \nTwenty patriots and veterans of the American Revolution are buried at the Old Sag Harbor Burying Grounds. The youngest\, Frederick Fordham\, died at age 17 after enduring capture and confinement on a British prison ship in Wallabout Bay\, New York Harbor. Captain Lester Beebee survived the war\, became a noted ship builder\, and constructed a windmill now preserved on the Berwind Estate in Bridgehampton. These and other patriots demonstrate the frightening circumstances that confronted Sag Harbor’s residents during wartime and the human cost of their service.

SUMMARY:Restoring the Stones
DESCRIPTION:Back by popular demand\, Zach Studenroth\, SHHM President\, will conduct a series of four different walking tours of the Old Burying Ground\, one on each of the last Sundays of June\, July\, August and September. Meet at the flagpole at Union and Church Streets. Attendance is free; donations are appreciated. \nThe burying ground preserves over 350 headstones and footstones\, some broken in pieces on the ground\, others tilting ominously\, or partially buried. Which can be repaired and preserved? Does stone type (brownstone\, slate\, marble) matter? What methods and materials are used in restoring gravemarkers and can volunteers help? The Robert D.L. Gardiner Foundation funded restoration of 20 patriots’ gravemarkers in the Old Sag Harbor Burying Ground\, and their conditions and treatments illustrate the range of techniques available in the preservation of historic headstones.

SUMMARY:The Restored BeeBee Headstones
DESCRIPTION:The group of 12 Beebee family headstones was severely damaged in the Hurricane of 1938 and have remained broken in multiple pieces and partially buried since that time. This restoration project\, funded by a grant from the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation\, undertook the conservation treatment and repair of 6 of these stones. The stones were selected because of the deteriorated condition and because as a group\, they tell a story of the Beebee family in Sag Harbor\, the patriarch of which was Captain Lester Beebee\, who distinguished himself during the Revolutionary War. Come see the results of these preservation efforts. \nAs the semiquincentennial (250th) anniversary of the Revolution and the Declaration of Independence in 2026 is fast approaching\, the completion of this project complements another project the Museum has undertaken—revealing the British fort which was built on the summit of the Old Burying Ground during the Revolution\, when the British occupied Sag Harbor for 7 years.
