Sorry, no wife listed. This is an incomplete list; some of the names, including that of Lowrence Knickerbocker, are designated as follows: "James H. Smith's History of Dutchess County, published 1882, states (p. 178) that there was then an abandoned family burial ground on a sand bluff back of the hotel at Tivoli Landing. From five stones the inscriptions were copied and printed on pp. 178-179 of the above named volume. These stones were evidently removed after 1882 to St. Paul's churchyard, being those in the above list marked by an asterisk. The family burial ground near the landing is supposed to have belonged to the Hoffmans, who were early and prominent residents in the immediate vicinity."
St. Paul's Cemetery is located in Tivoli, Dutchess Co., NY: "This church stands on River Rd. about a quarter of a mile north from the main road between Tivoli station and Madalin village." Madalin was an early name for the part of present day Tivoli which is located down near the Hudson River.
