Comment
This lot is located 100 feet west of Victory Highway at telephone pole #24. It is southeast of a small pond. The lot is 30 ft x 30 ft, in good condition, and enclosed with a stone wall. The historic cemetery sign is missing. There are 10 burials with three inscribed stones and four fieldstones. It is on the tax assessor’s map #310, Lot #1.01. James N. Arnold visited on 16 Aug. 1905 and noted, “Lot near to road west side, protected by wall, down in some places, lot covered with brush” (Vol. 6, Book C, page 1244). Recorded by Dr. Bill Eddleman and John Sterling for a 1998 book on Coventry cemeteries
