CommentThis cemetery was transcribed in July 1932 and recorded in Arnold's records volume 8 page 98. The transcriber is not listed, but I assume it to be Grace Tillinghast. She recorded 11 stones and noted an additional 3 unmarked graves. She described the cemetery thus: "Just off Cumberland Road from Arnold's Mills to Cumberland Hill, right hand side of road, much overgrown. South of and back of house where Mr Wood now lives, July 1932." Ethel M White also transcribed this cemetery during the 1930's. Transcribed by Roger Beaudry in November 1992.
