TUPPER-FOX CEMETERY
Lakeport
Town of Sullivan
Burials Include: Edward Nye and 2 Mrs. Tuppers Note: The cemetery existed somewhere along the bluff overlooking Oneida Lake north of the four corners at Lakeport. No stones are in evidence in the area, and the exact location is not known. The cemetery is said to have been located on the former Albert Larkin Estate, which at one time included all of the land at the four corners and extended to the lakeshore. There is known to have been a cemetery on the west side of Lake Street behind the former Stedman home that may or may not have been the Tupper-Fox Cemetery. Evalena Hubbard stated, “At Lakeport the old Tupper-Fox burying ground has long since been sold to camp sites. The stones in one or two places reversed and used as steps.” Her description would imply that the cemetery was on the east side of Lake Street as that was the location of the camp sites sold from the Larkin Estate.
