Although there are only a few Vansants buried at the Vandegrift Cemetery, there were many marriages between the two families dating back to the early 1700's around the time when both families migrated from New Utrecht in New Netherland to Bucks County and points farther south. Therefore, a large number of Vandegrifts buried in this cemetery may carry Vansant blood.
