CommentThis cemetery is located 10 feet north of Town Farm Road at telephone pole #59. It is 40 ft x 40 ft, in fair condition, and enclosed with granite posts and iron rails. The historic cemetery sign is in good condition. There are 15 burials with six inscribed stones. James N. Arnold visited this lot on 2 Nov. 1904 and noted, “A short distance east of Elder Stone's meeting house beside the road, yard protected by granite posts and iron rails, lot overgrown with brush and ferns” (Vol. 6, pages 310-311). This lot was also transcribed by Amelia K. Whitford. Recorded by Dr. Bill Eddleman and John Sterling for a 1998 book on Coventry cemeteries
