CommentThis lot is located 200 feet north of Whaley Hollow Road at telephone pole # 15, west of the drive to residence #364. The cemetery is 80 ft x 40 ft, in good condition, and has no enclosure. The historic cemetery sign is in good condition. There are 40 burials with 21 inscribed stones and 15 fieldstones. James N. Arnold visited this lot on 29 Jul. 1905 and noted, “On the Israel Whaley farm east of the house, lot partly protected, yard covered with brush” (Vol. 6, Book B, page 1103). Recorded by Dr. Bill Eddleman and John Sterling for a 1998 book on Coventry cemeteries
