CommentLocated 1500 feet north of Old Voluntown Road 500 feet behind #75. Take 1st road west, just north of the picnic area on Escoheag Hill Road a Plain Rd. This road is the Old Voluntown Rd or Tippecan Rd. Go to the bottom of the hill and take the driveway north (between the two brooks. Follow the dirt road behind the house 500 feet north. Turn east into the woods and go 110 ft to the cemetery on a slight hill. There is a stone wall on north side of the cemetery. The cemetery sign is at the edge of the woods behind the barn 600 feet from the cemetery. [this house belonged at one time to the Cowsills, a national singing group in the 1970's] Recorded by John Sterling & James Good for their 1994 book on Exeter cemeteries.
