Monfort Cemetery
Port Restoration Project
The Cow Neck Peninsula Historical Society and the Town of North Hempstead are uniting the community to preserve and honor our Colonial and American Revolutionary legacy at Monfort Cemetery.
Located at the crossroads of Port Washington Boulevard and Main Street, Monfort Cemetery (1737-1892) is recognized on the National Registry of Historic Landmarks and contains 151 grave sites of early Dutch and English settlers, including 9 patriots of the American Revolution.
