Jacobus Stoutenburgh – Settler in FDR AND THE POST OFFICE by Tony Musso

FDR AND THE POST OFFICEIM Stoutenburg-Malloy

In New York, the Hyde Park Post Office features seventeen painted panels of a historical mural project, one of which is of Jacobus Stoutenburgh clearing the land. These works are discussed in the book FDR and the Post Office by Tony Musso. Mr. Musso writes a weekly column for The Poughkeepsie Journal, and on November 19, 2014 our cemetery was featured in Dateline. Mr. Musso photographed the cemetery gates and wrote a very fine article, for which Gail Hotaling was interviewed.

The Poughkeepsie Journal has printed a number of articles over the years regarding the Stoutenburgh family of Hyde Park and their efforts throughout the years to maintain the Stoutenburgh-Teller Family Association. During his lifetime, President James Spratt was tireless in keeping the public informed of their projects.
