Here is a very generalized version of the lore at Goodleburg Cemetery:

Goodleburg Cemetery - Goodleburg Cemetery is located in Wales, NY.  It is small, located basically in the middle of nowhere.  This cemetery is very old, and contains the remains of at least one Revolutionary War veteran.  The spot is very beautiful, though many headstones are broken/vandalized.   Tales abound of the 1800's era abortion doctor who lived across the road.  he supposedly buried the aborted fetuses in the cemetery, and if the mother did not survive the procedure, he would toss her body into the cemetery's pond.  Ghost stories include the apparitions of crawling babies, and the sounds of babies crying.  Also mentioned is the ghost of the doctor hanging, after he took his own life from guilt.  Another local Goodleburg legend is that the area of the cemetery is home to the hellhounds - large, ferocious ghostly dogs with glowing red eyes.

All I have to add is that this cemetery is creepy as hell and I was there in the daytime. I will be going back there at night very soon to try and get some orb shots, etc.

Unfortunately you description of the folklore events of Goodleburg cemetery is inaccurate. Dr. Goodell could not have hung himself fro the trees were planted in the 1950's. the statement where he threw the dead mothers in the pond is inaccurate because the police put the pond in later to stop people from illegally entering the cemetery while it was closed.

Apart from that your shots are beautiful and the cemetery is quite and experience to go to.
