A Druid cross of Cape Ann made of granite marks the grave of Judge John Fitch. He was the first person to be buried in Kensico Cemetery. He was interred in 1890 and his monument was unveiled on November 12th of that year. Two hundred members of the Sons of the Revolution, along with other dignitaries, traveled by chartered train from Grand Central Depot in New York City to Kensico for the occasion. A banquet followed at a historic house on the grounds of Kensico.
