Records from the First Presbyterian Church of the Town of Hopewell, Ontario County, NY, USA. The Hopewell Cemetery is an old one. Located in the Town of Hopewell, County of Ontario about 3 miles East of Canandaigua, New York. It is on Mumby Road just a few hundred yards south of U. S. Route 20 (herein refered to as the Turnpike) which is the original route from Albany to the Genesee Valley and later on became the doorway to the frontier.
The original settlers in the area were former New Englanders. In 1807, the name of the town was changed again, this time to Gorham, in honor of Nathaniel Gorham. The Town of Hopewell was formed out of the northern section of the Town of Gorham on March 29, 1822.
