Cudmore: Singing in the St. Ann’s choir in Amsterdam | The Daily Gazette
SECTIONS
Emily Vandermeer Youngs Devendorf wrote poetry and music and was active in Amsterdam’s community life in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Emily’s husband was G. Smith Devendorf, an attorney with an office at 45 East Main Street. The Devendorfs had no children and lived at 40 Division Street, near St. Ann’s Episcopal Church where husband and wife were in the choir.
G. Smith directed the group; Emily sang and composed music for the choir, including an Easter anthem privately published in 1876. In the anthem, the chorus sings, “for the trumpet shall sound and the dead shall be raised incorruptible.”
