Comment
This cemetery is located beyond the end of Brick Pond Dr. Bicknell describes this lot as showing signs of neglect in 1898. He was interested in it because "it contains the dust of Matthew Watson, who was born in the seventeenth, living through the eighteenth, and died in the nineteenth century, at the remarkable age of 107 years" (p. 471). It was transcribed by Emma B. Shaw for the James N. Arnold (JNA) collection.
