Excerpt from Local Memorials Relating to the De Peyster and Watts and Affiliated Companies: Connected With Red Hook Township, Duchess Co;, S. N. Y
The grading around the church was done under the personal superintendence of Gen. De Peyster, and at the expense of Mr. Johnston Livingston and himself. For this a handsome Resolution of Thanks was voted and presented by the Vestry. From the northwest, again, the appearance of the church, springing up among the tall trees and above the vaults, is imposing, and resembles some of the religious structures of Europe which are deemed worthy of especial notice in guide-books.
