The Graves of John V. and Elizabeth (Lawson) Brokaw
Inscription:
"JOHN V.
BROKAW
1857 - 1940
HIS WIFE
ELIZABETH
LAWSON
1858-1955"
We think the "John V. Brokaw" buried with wife Elizabeth Lawson could
well be John Van Nuys Brokaw, baptized in Fairview Dutch Reformed
Church June 3, 1858, whose records give his date of birth Dec. 18, 1857, his
father as Chas. Brokaw, and his mother as Jane Ten Eyck.
