CommentLocated adjacent to Bethany Cemetery (CR023) at end of Hamilton Road at northeast corner of cemetery. Many of the gravestone are broken; some in multiple pieces. James Arnold visited this lot 6 Sep 1891 (Vol 1, pg 208) On the edge of the bank of the Pawtuxet River and between it and the Pawtuxet Valley Railroad on the land of Hon. James A. Budlong in edge of woods, yard not protected. Recorded by Charles & Martha Benns in 1934, their #379. The order of stones read by Arnold was used to assign map numbers as it is probably a truer reflection of the order.
