The Brant Cemetery is located on New York Route 249, one-half mile East of Brant Center. It was donated by Samuel Butts and the lots were set up by George Matteson. George Matteson was born in Vermont October 21, 1790. He was the son of Francis Matteson. A private burying ground was set aside by Mr Butts for his family and descendants which is still used today. It is located West of the main burial grounds. The cemetery is well kept but, due to age, some stones are becoming illegible and a few are broken. Located on the grounds to the rear of the tool shed is an area of unmarked graves, consisting of infants, children of farm laborers and adults who were either unidentified or could not afford the cost of a lot. The unidentified were killed as the result of being hit by trains passing through the area. A few stones with German inscriptions have been translated into English.
