The historic sign in front of the cemetery reads,
"Dutch Reformed Church - Established 1699 - Founded by Dutch settlers, the present church was erected in 1826 and is the oldest-established, operative church in Marlboro. Until 1764, services were held in the Dutch language. The first American-born pastor, Benjamin Dubois, is buried here. An avid American patriot in the struggle for independence, he took up arms against British incursions. " [1]

Dubois' grave is in the cemetery (shown above left).
There is a least one other Revolutionary War soldier buried in the cemetery (shown above right).
