Comment This cemetery was located 150 feet east of South Main Street, across from Sunapee Court. This cemetery shows on plat map #45 as lot #96. Richard Siembab spoke with Mrs. Edith C. Dunn (1908-1983) about 1980. She related a recollection that two men came with a wagon to the cemetery behind her house and removed the gravestones and the bones in her youth (probably about 1916). This cemetery was possibly the Kilton Cemetery. It is near the Kilton house at #38 South Main Street and, we know that a Kilton cemetery was removed to Woodland Cemetery (CY066) section M. Identified, registered and recorded by Dr. Bill Eddleman and John Sterling for a 1998 book on Coventry cemeteries.
