CommentLocated 850 feet east of the railroad tracks and 3200 feet west of Shumuncanuck Hill Road. Going north on Shumucanuck Rd. pass CH075 and go to place where there is a gulley on the north side. Head northwest through the woods toward the railroad tracks. The cemetery is in a lightly wooded area near a stone wall. It is on the west side of a hill just south of an old house foundation. This cemetery was found, registered and recorded Dwight C. Brown. Recorded by Lorraine Tarket-Arruda and Gayle Waite for their 2008 book on Charlestown cemeteries.
