This is the smallest cemetery in Brooklyn and was founded in 1725 by Dutch immigrant William Harmans Barkaloo. There is a plaque erected in 1962 on the protective gate, which called the place "Revolutionary Cemetery".which indicates that several Revolutionary War veterans are buried here; though some historians dismiss the claim as spurious, others say that William Barkaloo's sons, Harmans and Jacques, fought in the Battle of Brooklyn, which raged in Bay Ridge and throughout the towns of New Utrecht and Brooklyn.
It is the only family plot in Brooklyn not part of a larger cemetery.
