Below is information from June Partridge Zintz,
 
"The cemetery on Bleistein Rd., just up the grade from Partridge Rd. is the Partridge Family Cemetery...which is my family.
It contains my Rev. Ancestor, Asa Partridge, grave & Rev. War marker.
It also contains Fidelia Partridge Sweetapple & her baby who died 7 May 1862 in child birth.
Her husband, (John B.), died 21 Dec 1862 at Fort Monroe during the Civil War.
Surrounding her grave is a wrought iron fence, and a sweetapple tree.
A few other stones are there, plus a good number of graves with no markers.
Four generations of the family are there.
This was the Partridge Farm from the early 1820's until the 1940's, when my parents sold it.
The land went half way to Center Rd. along Partridge Rd. "
